I don't have an answer. I'll add what I found and maybe someone else can see what's going on.
From your httpd.conf you have set DocumentRool to /var/www/html
So fetching a url such as http://servername/mrtg would try to fetch the file "mrtg" from directory /var/www/html - so it's looking for /var/www/html/mrtg
From your error_log, the forbidden is being generated from a reference to
/var/www/mrtg - this is outside the document root, so something has directed the URL reference of "/mrtg" to directory/file /var/www/mrtg Do you have a symbolic link at /var/www/html/mrtg which points to /var/www/mrtg ? It's about the only thing I can think of. Do you have anything at /var/www/mrtg on your susyem? If so, is it a file, or a directory? On 19/01/07, Lowe, Grant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

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".

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.
