I'm running 3.0-RELEASE, and just installed Apache 1.3.2.
I'm using the default access.conf file (just copied from
access.conf.default).
In the /usr/local/www/data directory, I created the data symbolic link:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 27 Jul 1 11:08 data ->
/usr/local/share/doc/apache
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 27 Jun 22 09:20 data.default ->
/usr/local/share/doc/apache
In the /usr/local/share/doc/apache directory:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 2326 Jul 3 1996 apache_pb.gif
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 1622 May 20 1998 index.html
drwxr-xr-x 6 root staff 1024 Jun 22 09:20 manual
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 27 Jul 1 10:18 mydocs ->
/home/kuuse/Desktop/mydocs/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root staff 512 Jul 1 11:04 mytry
I created the symbolic link
mydocs
("Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /mydocs on this server.")
and the subdirectory
mytry
The subdirectory access (httpd://localhost/mytry) works fine, but the
symbolic link (http://localhost/mydocs) doesn't.
Anyone knows why?
Please send a copy to me, as I'm currently not on the list.
Thanks in advance!

Here follows an extract of the access.conf file:
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
<Directory /usr/local/www/data>
# This may also be "None", "All", or any combination of "Indexes",
# "Includes", "FollowSymLinks", "ExecCGI", or "MultiViews".
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options",
"FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"
AllowOverride None
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
order allow,deny
allow from all
