# "401 Authorization Required",
Just setup a directory with a .htaccess setup to require Login. Cancel the
login.
# "403 Forbidden",
Change the permissions so that Apache can't read the directory, or remove
the index file and do not allow directory browsing.
# "500 Internal Server Error",
Make a quick and dirty "Yo, World" script - break it.
