I'm trying to install wordpress locally on a mac with the built in stuff (apache/php) without installing MAMP. basically I'm following this tutorial:

<a href="https://gist.github.com/1500117" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/1500117</a>

after editing the httpd.conf file, and restarting apache, I get this error in the browser:

Code:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Any ideas?
I'm using Snow Leopard
