Thanks, this turns out to be the answer.  I did the kosher thing and
put it in httpd.conf.  

Now does someone want to explain to this relative newbie at apache
configuration (although not at running linux) why the default
commonhttpd doesn't allow access to the default root?  The
configuration as distributed does not work out of the box.
