    Regular use of chmod does not make anybody an expert in Unix

    as you think.  However, given that apache has a vast swamp of
    its own access controls, I'd be inclined to suspect that your
    error is quite likely in there.
    
    I'd suggest that you turn on every bit of apache logging that
    you can find; that you study all the logs while attempting to do
    stuff; and that you read the apache documentation carefully for
    whatever apache version you're using to ensure that you are both
    aware of all the controls that apply and that you understand the
    ones that have been setup.
    
    Cheers, Greg

I'm sure there's a gap in my knowledge here. What you say sounds good. I
don't think there is a quick solution to this one. Thanks Greg.
