I did this: % echo garbage >cgi-bin/.htaccess and I set up the <Directory>s the way you listed. And when I access /cgi-bin/printenv it fails and my error log shows: [Fri Feb 6 11:42:06 1998] access to /home/dgaudet/ap/apachen/cgi-bin/.htaccess failed for 127.0.0.1, reason: Invalid command garbage So it is definately reading the .htaccess file.
