Author Directory index forbidden by rule: /Users/me/Music/iTunes/PS3/

I have been trying all evening to setup Apache 1.3.33 to allow me to
transfer files from my MacPro to my Playstation 3. The Playstation 3
keeps giving a network error. What I seem to have found that:

On the playstation 3 when your enter the ipaddress/PS3/ URL , the
bonjour service remaps the URL from 45.435.45.1 to george-smiths-
computer.local. When this occurs on the playstation 3, it then gives
the network error since it can't find this name on the local network.
I think that is what is happening, but the error message is not giving
me the URL on the playstation so I can't confirm. The weird thing is
that it will give the directory for the icons mapping; it does not do
the remapping. My aliases are:

Alias /icons/ "/usr/share/httpd/icons/"

<Directory "/usr/share/httpd/icons">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Alias /PS3/ "/Users/me/Music/iTunes/PS3/"

<Directory "/Users/me/Music/iTune/PS3">
Options +Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

If I try this on a local network PC, I get the "Directory index
forbidden by rule: /Users/me/Music/iTunes/PS3/" message if I don't
have an index.html in the PS3 directory. If I add it (I really don't
want it - I just want a listing of the songs in that directory) then I
do get the index. I don't want to edit index.html to add the link as
the iTunes library is quite dynamic.

So between bonjour and this Directory forbidden by rule error, I seem
to be hosed. I have check the directory permissions, and they are all
755.

Thanks.

I think that something is messing around with your entry. Have you
checked in the error_log if there is a better error message?
