Hi,

I installed RH6.2 apache web server.I starts
fine, but I can't access the home page or the users page. It gives me this message
permission denied forbidden 403.

I made sure that the directory had r-x by everybody. Please help

had the same problem: you need to not only check the rights to the users public_html dir, but you need to give those same rights to the user home dir, as well. what is happening is that the web server can't even get through to the public_html dir, because of permission given to the users home dir. this should definetly solve your problem.

good luck,
Sneak
