permission denied

[Kevin <khanrahan (at) charter.net>]

Hello all,
 I am installing Hobbit for the first time in over a year..( I am still 
running RC5 at work in production !! ) and I am having a stupid error 
that I could use help on. I can't see the web interface! I get :

You don't have permission to access /hobbit/ on this server

but every directory and every file has 777 permissions on it!


any ideas please??

thanks

Kevin
