If apache 2 is going to ship with mod_vhost_alias (which it should), the
following blocks should be in commonhttpd.conf:

<Directory /var/www/hosts/*/docs>
        Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory /var/www/hosts/*>
        Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
</Directory>

Possibly wrapped in an IfModule. Otherwise users (like me) get cryptic
"client denied by server configuration" errors in the logs after an
upgrade to 2.0.

I pulled the above from the backup it made of my configuration. I don't
remember whether it was a default thing in the apache 1.3 modules or
not, but it should be.

Otherwise, fantastic work on the switch to apache 2.0. Cool stuff.

James.
