can't access web pages

[Ben Jansen]

Make sure that your html directory(ies) and files are readable by 
whatever user Apache is running as (nobody, probably). I'm pretty sure 
that `chmod -R +r *' (recursively make all files world readable) in your 
root HTML directory should do it. Either that, or chown it to nobody.
