OK, sorry to be such a pest here but let me make sure I got this
right.
There is a sort of generic default allow nothing Directory statement
over '/'.
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
So does that then mean that setting execCGI on
/var/www/localhost/htdocs will not cover
/var/www/localhost/htdocs/subdir?
No. You are correct in thinking that more specific <Directory> sections override less-specific ones in general. The specific ordering is defined here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/sections.html#mergin So you likely have another Options directive someplace.
