I fixed it. It was a group issue. I had to add apache and rancid to my
netadm group.

You may have missed a step in the configuration process. Usually I go
back and verify each step and come across something that I missed and
everything works perfectly. Sorry but the error output isn't very
helpful for a router guy like me.

Thanks for the tip, but that didn't fix my issue as the appropriate
permissions are set.
Any other ideas??

I'm seeing some weirdness with CVSWEB. When I run my
http://server/rancid I get:
"Error: No valid CVS roots found! See @CVSrepositories in the
configuration file"
I looked in my httpd error log and found this:
"Root '/usr/local/rancid/CVS' defined in @CVSrepositories is not a
directory, entry ignored at /var/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi line 481."
Now I know that the directory does exist. Any ideas why this is
happening?
