However they have absolute path /ftp. /ftp does not exist on my system. I believe that's why apache is refusing to serv them. I tried to do a symbolic link of /ftp -> /xemacs/ftp_area and everything worked. (in http:// only. ftp:// was still problem) I would suggest that you do relative path links and not absolute path links. I tried to make the following symbolic link ln -sf ../../../packages/Sun-1.16-pkg.tar.gz and then I could download Sun package both from http:// and ftp://
