Yes, Apache access.htaccess only at that point where you inserted AllowOverride in the directory container.
It also saves a little disk io load on web server :) -Anam ________________________________ From: Nick Edwards <nick.z.edwa...@gmail.com> To: users <users@httpd.apache.org> Sent: Wednesday, 14 March 2012, 11:41 Subject: [users@httpd] htaccess Hi, Just trying to clarify it is best to allow these in the virtualhost root on a per domain For instance at present we have <Directory /> AllowOverride None Options None Require all denied </Directory> I know this is good :) But then we have <Directory "/var/www"> AllowOverride AuthConfig Options +Indexes </Directory> now assume each virtualhosts web root is under /var/www/virtuals/domain.name/var/www/html I understand that current setup means apache looks in all dirs up to /var/www So, am I assuming it is best in each <virtualhost> container I am better off using a directory container like <directory /var/www/virtuals/domain.name/var/www/html? AllowOverride AuthConfig </directory> and removing authconfig from the /var/www I am thinking this saves a little performance as it then only looks for .htaccess in /var/www/virtuals/domain.name/var/www/html /var/www/virtuals/domain.name/var/www/html/blog/ /var/www/virtuals/domain.name/var/www/html/blog/includes rather than going up the chain further, is that correct? 3 looks versus 8 ? Also seeing segfaults still occasionally, no further info on that, with 2K hosts a machine it is impossible to peruse every log trying to track down what host/request caused it. Also (they say things come in threes!) any comments on previous post a few days ago re "crazy logging" :-> Thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
