At witt's end..
Hi!
I'm having a problem simply accessing my links homepage. I can access my admin pages just fine, it's when I click on "Homepage" that I get a Forbidden 403 message:
Forbidden
Directory index forbidden by rule: /usr/vweb/becky/public_html/pages/
Apache/1.3.2 Server at www.wildlife-fantasy.com Port 80

Here is my links.cfg file. Please tell me if I configured something incorrectly!
Thanks SO much!

Your server may not allow Links to build in the home directory.
