Re: [expert] Apache and Mandrake 9.0
You need to find the Directory /Directory section for that area of your webspace, usually /var/www/html. Then look for the following: Order allow,deny Allow from all And watch out also for the AllowOverride option That could need a .htaccess file if it s on. ANd then , if you don't have any .htaccesss, it ll forbit access laurent Mesuré Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Re: [expert] Apache and Mandrake 9.0
I almost apologize (but I didn't say RTFM). There is too much documentation, much of it too old. Webmin is wonderful. Mandrake is easy. When it isn't, a day or two making it easy is a good idea.

I though that when one uses the Mandrake Wizard for Apache and specify an Intranet server, that it sets up the necessary rights to read that directory - apparently NOT. I found the problem - and I used Webmin to change the /Directory section to allow all instead of the default localhost. Thanks again for all the responses.

Cheers, R.Fox For what it's worth, I've found the Apache documentation extremely helpful. Yes, there's a lot of it, and sometimes you have to wade through several levels before you find what you're looking for. But by the time you find it, you also have a better working knowledge of how your system works -- and that, in itself, has great value, even if you suffered a few headaches along the way. -- Dave Sherman| They that can give up essential liberty MCSE, MCSA, CCNA| to obtain a little temporary safety | deserve neither liberty nor safety. |- Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
