<Directory "X:\shareware">
       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI
       AllowOverride All
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all
</Directory>

ok, I tried that, I'm not getting it to work, I've changed my coding and directories to shareware to make it a little easier, within the above code I changed x to d because the files I want to access are on my d drive. What am I missing? Alias' are loaded.
