Tim:

Try a virtual host block that looks like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/drupal"
        ServerName drupal.localhost
        ServerAlias drupal
     <Directory /var/www/html/drupal>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride FileInfo Limit Options Indexes
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
     </Directory>
</VirtualHost>


Regards,

Derek
