It may be getting denied by SELinux, I suspect the label on your aliased directory die not allow httpd access.  You will likely need to look into semanage, something like this may do what you need, but I'm not an expert at SELinux myself... redhat provides some explanation here:  https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/selinux_users_and_administrators_guide/sect-security-enhanced_linux-troubleshooting-top_three_causes_of_problems#sect-Security-Enhanced_Linux-Top_Three_Causes_of_Problems-Labeling_Problems 

# semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t '/opt/repository/rhel_updates(.*)?'
# restorecon -R -v /opt/repository/rhel_updates

Hey Eric, I appreciate the help! Here's what I have, though it is
transcribed.

Set locally required limited OS access.

        <Directory />
          Options None
          Order deny,allow
          Deny from all
        </Directory>

We use Apache as a yum repo, and store the rpms outside of the DocumentRoot.

        Alias "/rhel/updates" "/opt/repository/rhel_patch_updates"
        <Directory "/opt/repository/rhel_patch_updates">
          Options All
          Order allow,deny
          Allow from all
        </Directory>


When we hit 'http://myserver/rhel/updates' the error_log says it is
denied by server configuration. I've set the LogLevel to "debug" and
that's all I get. The log is at work, sorry. I'm the one who did the
server configuration so my bet is "operator error", just not sure how to
fix it.

Appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks!

Leam
