Hi Frank, Have you allowed these options to be overridden, if not you will get a 500 for sure.
Go to GUI > Server management > Network Services > Web and allow the overrides, then the .htaccess will work. To do this on just a site by site basis or just for a single directory allow overides in the httpd includes for your site.
