I recently installed FC5 from scratch.
The problem is that I cant serve a directory from a fat32 partition which i have mounted as
"/home/<myuser>/e"
I could do this perfectly in FC4 , but in FC5 when i give the url alias http://<mysite>/e/
it says
"You don't have permission to access /e/ on this server."

Also i have disabled SELinux.
Apache runs as the user apache and group apache.

The fstab line for the fat32 partition is
/dev/hda5 /home/<myuser>/e vfat users,rw,owner,umask=000 0 0

please help...

After i did ll <my dir> i got this.....
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4759011 Jan 8 16:02 01 presentation.doc

there are many more files, all have these same permissions
