If you don't want to make the changes available server-wide that Alan suggested, you can add code to a single site's httpd.conf include file at: /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts/siteX.include Add: <Directory "/home/.sites/XX/siteX/web"> AllowOverride All Options All </Directory> Save, restart httpd. _______________________________________________ Blueonyx mailing list [email protected] http://www.blueonyx.it/mailman/listinfo/blueonyx
