...I restart apache and get this error:

Access forbidden!
You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either
no index document or the directory is read-protected.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

I checked the folder permissions on the windows XP box and they are read
only but the files in them are not read only. It's a new install and I can
not see who has access to those folders but the XP newsgroup said those
folder permission (readonly ) can NOT be changed.

Any ideas?

Yes,
DocumentRoot "D:/programfiles/xamp/xampp/htdocs"

and

Alias /cf/ "D:/MyWebSites/web sites/cf/"

When go to localhost/cf/, I get the error:
"Access forbidden!
You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either
no index document or the directory is read-protected."

The only thing I can figure is that all web sites must be under the document
root which means the alias is useless in this circumstance.

Anyt ideas are MUCH appreciated!
