Hi, Jeremy, any chance that the following applies?

  Quoting http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_alias.html#alias:

  In particular, if you are creating an Alias to a directory outside of
  your DocumentRoot, you may need to explicitly permit access to the
  target directory.


It would be a little curious if it did, since you say "Options +Indexes"
also opens up the directory. That turning on auto-indexing for a
directory would imply "Allow from all" seems a little fishy to me...

A shot in the dark,  -- Matthew
