rewrite debugging

I tried dozens of sample techniques for appropriately
configuring
httpd.conf to have apache2 rewrite my urls from http://somesite.com to
http://localhost:8080/1
where my plone site sits.  The rewrite error
logs look okay.  From a remote browser, I can successfully
do a
http://somesite.com:8080/1
 and get my plone site, since that just uses
the Zserver and bypasses Apache2 (using sarge Debian +
latest stable
zope and plone).  I can also browse http://localhost:8080/1
on the
server and get my plone site.  But, when I do a remote or
local browse
to http://somesite.com, I
get a "Forbidden You don't have permission to
access / on this server." message in the browser.

To troubleshoot, I tried the most basic rewrite I could
fathom that
should work.  I commented out my zope book recommended
rewrite string
and just changed it to: "RewriteRule / http://localhost:8080/1
[P]"
and still got this in my error logs: [Fri Oct 13 19:31:31
2006] [error]
[client 207.210.106.190] client denied by server
configuration:
proxy:http://localhost:8080/1  

It seems like my problem has nothing to do with Zope or
anything, but
apache isn't rewriting at all!  But the rewrite logs look
okay.  I'm
stumped.  Yes, I have the proxy and rewrite modules loaded. 
Thanks in
advance for any help or insight!  -Eric Jahn

I use a ProxyPass directive:

ProxyPass / http://local
host:9080/VirtualHostBase/http/douganconsulting.com:80/Douga
nConsulting/VirtualHostRoot/
ProxyPassReverse / http://local
host:9080/VirtualHostBase/http/douganconsulting.com:80/Douga
nConsulting/VirtualHostRoot/

Are you using the VHM (Virtual Host Monster)?
