And the solution was to have the /home/tara directory BOTH READABLE
AND EXACUITABLE by users groups and others You can NOT set the
permissions on the link , but it has to be done on the origional files
and directories or it won't work.
Thanks for the help

Besides the other helpful comments I've seen other people make (like
adding the "FollowSymLinks" to your http.conf file), I'll throw in
another snippet:
On nearly all Unix systems out there, you can't change the
permissions on a symbolic link -- Linux is included. In fact, the
permissions on a symbolic link don't matter on such systems -- the
permissions of the thing that the symlink points are the thing that
matter.
So please confirm that the permissions on the /home/tara/html
directory are correct. Don't worry about the permissions on the
symlink.
I've only been vaguely following this thread, but I don't believe that
you've posted the corresponding error messages in the Apache error log
yet. Could you do this? This would go a long way towards us helping
you out. (if you've already done this, just ignore me)
