403 Error - Forbidden

If you believe you should be able to view this directory or page, please try to contact the Web site by using any e-mail address or phone number that may be listed on the 65.108.9.74 home page.

You can click Search to look for information on the Internet.




HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden

But everything go fine if I type for example:
http://65.108.9.74/cgi-bin/links/pages/New/index.shtml

If I type
http://65.108.9.74/cgi-bin/links/pages/New(/)
It doesn't work.

1) You should move your BUILT PAGES outside of your cgi-bin directory.
2) You need to set index.shtml as your DEFAULT home page file in your .htaccess file.

Don't know how to do that?

Search the support forums for Directory htaccess.

you do not have directory browsing turned on and index.(s)html is not your default index file. additionally, you are building you pages in your cgi-bin which is NOT a good idea to begine with.
