Can someone else take over? I'm tired of trying to explain to people that
their entire config is relevant.

Dean,
Here is my config, which is virtually identical to my 1.26 config with
the exception that the paths are now hard...
<VirtualHost test.whtech.com>
ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
DocumentRoot /usr/home/whtech/html
ServerName test.whtech.com
ErrorLog /usr/local/etc/apache/var/log/wht.error_log
<Directory /usr/home/whtech/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
<Location /server-status>
SetHandler server-status
Order deny,allow
allow from all
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
You can see that I have a <Directory> diretive, and that the option is set.
