Thanks Nathan.  This is exactly the problem I am having.

I forgot to metion my version info.
I am using ColdFusion MX (6.1) on Sun Solaris 8 with Apache 2.0.43.

It looks like Apache is just passing the request to ColdFusionMX
directly and bypassing my statement in the Apache2 http.conf file.

<Directory />
     Options none
     AllowOverride None
     Order Allow,Deny
</Directory>

So I added to following statement for the virtual host configuration:

# ColdFusion directories.
Alias /CFIDE/ /coldfusionmx/wwwroot/CFIDE/

Alias /cfide/ /coldfusionmx/wwwroot/CFIDE/

Alias /cfdocs/ /coldfusionmx/wwwroot/cfdocs/

<Directory "/coldfusionmx/wwwroot/">
     Options Indexes
     Order Allow,Deny
     #Allow from all
</Directory>

This seems to work, but I need to do more testing next week.
