How to configure Apache & Apache2?

Hi there. I have both apache 1.3.29-48 & apache2-2.0.49-0 installed serving on different ports. I have also installed apache-example-pages-1.3.29-48, all running on SuSE 9.0 Professional. My problem is that none of the links on the example home page works. All attempts are refused with error 403 "Forbidden". Can anyone please suggest how to go about allowing access to these pages, both from the localhost and the lan? tia -- Some programming languages manage to absorb change but withstand progress.
