Jim,

You don't need the last two directory containers since child directories
inherit configuration items from the parent directories. That being
said, they should not harm anything.

First thing to check is to make sure that the child directories have the
same permissions as the parent. Use option 9 from WRKLNK to look at
permissions.

If that's okay, take a look at the HTTP error log. It may list what
caused the problem in it.

If you're still stumped, start the server up with option -vv (to
lowercase V's), try the request again, and end the server. This will
produce a trace file that will let you see hwy it's generating the 403
error.

OK I went and did it now. 

I was using the  "META"  redirect that Aaron suggested and that was 
working fine, so I though I'd do another one.  I added the last set of 
lines for directory Catalog to the .conf file and stopped and restarted 
the server and now neither redirect work they both tell me: HTTP Error
403 
- Forbidden  "You are not authorized to view this page"!

Under the /OP Directory I have two directories called Recalls and
Catalog 
with an html file called index  If I open these via a mapped drive and 
click on either file they display the page correctly, so I know that
part 
works.  Below is what I have in the .conf file for DIR's.  Thought I had

this figured out the other day as I changed the Recalls in the Directory

statement to all caps and that seemed to make it work (maybe I was
wrong?) 
 

I'd welcome any suggestions  and I can post the whole .conf file if 
needed.

<Directory /> 
   Order Deny,Allow 
   Allow From all 
  Deny From all 
</Directory> 
# 
<Directory /OP> 
   Order Allow,Deny 
   Allow From all 
</Directory> 
# 
<Directory /OP/RECALLS> 
   Order Allow,Deny 
   Allow From all 
</Directory> 
# 
<Directory /OP/CATALOG> 
   Order Allow,Deny 
   Allow From all 
</Directory>
