============

In /etc/apache/http.conf, have a look for this section. It looks like it
_may_ be something..


#
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
#
~    Order allow,deny
~    Allow from all

| These error messages are quite normal for Apache and I wouldn't think

|
| May I suggest you take a look at your "Order allow,deny" part and put in
| your httpd.conf file and allow from your lan: ie.:
|
| Allow from 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
|
| As an example
