I have some files in a directory on my Win98SE box that I want to make 
available via the web server on my ML 8.2 box.  I have a smbmount to the 
drive at /mnt/d on the Linux box.  I've verified that any regular, non-
priviledged user can do a "ls -la /mnt/d" (and subdirectories) and will get 
a directory listing, and can copy files.  In /etc/httpd/conf on the Linux 
box, I've got a configuration file which says:

Alias /stuff/ /mnt/d/temp/
<Directory /mnt/d/temp/>
  Options Indexes -FollowSymlinks -Includes
  AllowOverride None
  order allow,deny
  allow from all
</Directory>

And I'm doing an Include of that configuration file in the httpd.conf file. 
 However, when I try to do reference the directory as 
http://mylinuxcomputer/stuff/, I get a "403 Forbidden you are not 
authorized to access /stuff on this server" message.  Also, trying to 
directly reference a file via a URL type-in gets me the same 403 Forbidden 
message (although it now complains about the file, rather than the 
directory, in the error message).

Anyone have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong here?  How do I get the 
web server to allow access to the files in this directory?  Any help would 
be appreciated!
