RE: Apache issue

The Apache documentation at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_access.html#order will be
helpful to you. Essentially, you must order the Allow,Deny statement the
same way as your Allow from/Deny from statements. Example:

<Directory /foo/bar>
        Order Deny,Allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
</Directory>
