First, no, there was no tomfoolery implicated in copying the file. Just take an existing Apache logo image file and copy it from the Unix command-line. Or copy the file to the system from a Windows PC using any utility like FTP or SCP.IMO The 403 is returned in a path where errors imply a high likelyhood of someone actively trying to fool the server -- I don't think a 403 is too inappropriate here.
On the system, the result of an "ls" of that file looks like this : -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2326 2004-11-20 21:16 joaquín.gif with the locale of that user being LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-15Next, nothing personal implied, but what you are saying above is a singularly mono-cultural point of view. Why would a path composed entirely of printable characters of the latin iso-8859-1 alphabet imply a high likelihood of someone trying to fool the server ?
So if I try to allow Apache to serve documents from my home directory /home/andré/public_html, I should trigger 403 errors ?
