Are you sure you aren't setting it in a Directory >section applicable only to your document root and not user >directories? Mark, I'm including my access.conf file. I'm certain this option worked for me in the past with 1.2b* and the same access.conf. I looked at the distribution access.conf for 1.2.1 and it looks similar as well. It is my understanding that configuration settings for the DocumentRoot apply to all subdirectories (including user directories) unless they are specifically overridden. /www/www/research is our DocumentRoot as defined in srm.conf. For historical reasons user accounts are under /usr.
