permission denied

Not sure if it can help but some week ago i got some problem on a RHEL4
machine and apache (and php if I remember well) that was caused by
selinux security ...
I don't know if this can be the case...

Yes sir I do. I went one step further and gave every directory from / to the hobbit directory 777 permissions. How could access be denied?
