WallyJ I would guess.....
Basically your main config is saying "dont let any sub directory's htaccess files do anything, I'm the boss!" So when mod_rewrite is inactive, there is no issue. But when you activate mod_rewrite you create a conflict which results in the access forbidden. You'll need to edit httpd.conf for the directory this occurs on. You'll likely see something like <directory /location/of/cake> AllowOverride None </directory> Change the None to All. which changes its stance to "I'm still the boss but I don't like to micro-manage, so let htaccess files do their thing."
