Local browing only WAMP/Drupal
I have Win 7 and Virtual PC installed. In VPC I have a Win2003 virtual machine with IIS not enabled. I installed WAMP on 2003 and can see the default web pages using localhost on the VM. I installed Drupal and can browse the app on the win2003 VM using localhost. My problem is I get a forbidden page when I try to get to it from the Win7 host. Seems like a rights issue but I have not been able to find what exact Windows rights need to be on the WAMP folder. I have tried to open it up to anything and everyone but still get forbidden.

The VM is configured correctly. It picks up it's own IP and I can browse to the VM file system from multiple machines. It appears to be something with Drupal or WAMP. I suspect WAMP or Windows file rights. I threw a basic web file in the www root and I get a 403 forbidden error from remote machines. Works fine from the VM ocalhost.
