Also the entries from the error log would be useful. There are (at least)
two distinct ways to get "Forbidden" - the httpd.conf doesn't say that
apache can server pages from a particular {directory;URL;etc} or, the
httpd.conf says that it *is* OK, but when apache gets to the file it wants
to serve, the operating system says "you can't read that file".

We don't know how you configured the webserver or virtual-host.
And since we don't, my advice would be to start looking at these places:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_access.html#allow
(And: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_access.html#deny)
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_access.html#order

Check in your config files if you used these directives at multiple
places for the same VH.
Or post your config so someone can look at it.


Grts,
Rob
