PROBLEM SOLVED.  Following suggestion, I took
a close look at VirtualHost.  It was not the problem, but I
note that the reason I get the 403 is because the last line
in my VirtualHost is:

    RewriteRule ^.*$ - [F,L]

It is the 'F' that generates the 403.  To make the server-status
work, in the VirtualHost I need:

   RewriteRule ^/server-status.*$ - [L]

somewhere near the top.

But that is not all. In <Directory "/var/www/html/www"> I need:

   RewriteRule ^server-status.*$ - [L]

Note the difference in the '/' between <VirtualHost> and
<Directory>.  It must be exactly as shown or it will not
work.

Thanks again for your help.

Mike.
