Topic: iBay - only able to view the top level pages

[William Wong]

The situation is :

we are able to drag N drop files to say ibaytest/html directory where ibaytest is the name of the ibay

- only index.html or some_files.html right under  ..../html directory can be viewed
- any subdirectory and its files are not viewable

Error messages is

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /ibaytest/subdir/index.html on this server.
even we specifiy the full file name of known files under 'subdir'

The /etc/httpd/logs/error_log file shows

[Mon Jul 24 13:24:16 2000] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] (13)Permission denied
: file permissions deny server access: /home/e-smith/files/ibays/ibaytest/ht
ml/subdir/index.html


Any clue here ?

also, we are using read=group, write=group and "entire internet (password required outside local network)

Thks in advance for any pointer
