"Error 403! Forbidden" on 'Add New User'

    After I submit the “Add New User” form at : /wp-admin/user-new.php I see the wordpress error screen (blank) with 403 Forbidden in the Title.

    I searched for this in the forums and only found a reference specific to an older version. I even added the code suggested in that post to .htaccess but it did not fix the problem.

    Environment:
    This seems to be server specific, because it works just fine on our dev server but not on the production one. Both sites have the same plugins and same settings applied. This is a multi-site (network) WP 3.1.3 install with Buddypress. User registration is disabled.

    Dev server environment (working fine):
    OS Linux
    Server Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS)
    PHP v5.1.6
    MYSQL v5.0.77

    Prod. server environment (NOT working):
    OS Linux
    Server Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat)
    PHP v5.1.6
    MYSQL v5.1.46 sp1-enterprise-gpl-advanced

    Anyone else have this problem, and/or know how to resolve it, please?
