Synopsis: htaccess searched for in weird places State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: dgaudet State-Changed-When: Tue Apr 1 12:43:57 PST 1997 State-Changed-Why: <Location> only matches URLs, it sounds like you want to protect the filesystem -- which you should use <Directory> and/or <Files> for. In any event, unless you've got a section like:
<Directory /> AllowOverride None </Directory> then apache will look for .htaccess everywhere. That's the correct behaviour. The <Directory> docs suggest this. Thanks for using apache. Dean
