<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Couldn't reproduce your error, but for
what it's worth, check which user your Apache processes are running as
and make sure that user is either the owner or in the group of your /rep
folder.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">You can change which user Apache runs
as in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (or equivalent) around line 227 of the
