style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Chris, did you ever find out the
cause of your permission error? I am running Red Hat 8.0 and finding the same
problem. I have also followed the faq exactly. .htaccess files look good,
httpd.conf edited properly. Htpasswd.users file is correct. I’m wondering
if it might be some problem with apache under RH 8.0?</span></font></p>
