Thanks for the reply. I removed the 443 from that directive, since I'm
using standard ports, I don't think I need to specify anything. I
believe that may have been added automatically by Webmin at some point
when I was messing with it.

Here is the httpd -S output:

VirtualHost configuration:
wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers:
_default_:443          primary.localdomain
(/etc/httpd/conf/vhosts.d/01_default_ssl_vhost.conf:13)
*:*                    primary.mydomain.com
(/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:1116)
*:*                    newvh.mydomain.com (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:112=
7)
Syntax OK

I don't see anything there that hints at the document root for the
virtual hosts which is the crux of my problem. Howevwer, I did find an
error in the httpd log that is obviously related.

(13)Permission denied: /var/www/html/Scripts/Menu132/.htaccess
pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable,
referer: http://newvh.mydomain.com/

I don't see why there is a permissions problem with that subdirectory
since it is not referenced in the page attempting to load. It must be
because it is loading the index.html from the primary document root.
Which it does successfully (that seems like a security issue to me) and
which also does not reference that menu directory.
