question about changing Apache "Authorized Required" page to other page

[Brian Densmore]

Not sure what your problem is. It looks more like a browser/spelling
issue than a server issue. I went to jcho.net and punched in an
non-existing page and got the stock apache error document. As the link 
says, you can use any local page as the 404 not found error page. You
have to define it in your httpd.conf file though and restart Apache or
force Apache to reread the config file.
