 Dean,
 That did it! THanks for the help (BTW, in the initial bug report, I did
 have the access.conf which had the restriction paragraph on /).
 
 Thanks again for your help!
 Al

 Oh I didn't read this last time.  You're probably getting this because
 you've got some global directive like:
 
 <Directory />
 order deny,allow
 deny from all
 </Directory>
 
 If so, you should add: 
 
 order allow,deny
 allow from all
 
 To the <Directory /var/mrtg> section.
