Make the reference to the 1.3 FAQ a little more up-to-date; and
add a FAQ on SELinux.

    <p>A <code>Permission denied</code> error in the

    <code>error_log</code>, accompanied by a <code>Forbidden</code>

    message to the client usually indicates a problem with your

    filesystem permissions, rather than a problem in the Apache HTTP

    Server configuration files.  Check to make sure that the

    <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#user">User</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#group">Group</a></code> running the child processes

    has adequate permission to access the files in question.  Also

    check that the directory and all parent directories are at least

    searchable for that user and group (i.e., <code>chmod

    +x</code>).</p>



    <p>Recent Redhat versions and other Linux distributions using

    SELinux have additional access restrictions beyond those used by

    the basic filesystem.  Violations of these restrictions will also

    result in a <code>Permission denied</code> message.  See the

    Redhat <a href="http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc3/">SELinux

    FAQ</a> and <a href="http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-apache-fc3/">Apache
