I don't really know what you mean by "override this code". Setting AllowOverride to None will indeed turn off processing of .htaccess files. But you likely have another AllowOverride directive in a different part of httpd.conf that turns AllowOverride back on for certain parts of the filesystem. So assuming that the directory containing the .htaccess is covered by an AllowOverride all, then the .htaccess will be read. Two other things: 1. You can't put AllowOverride inside an .htaccess. It makes no sense to control .htaccess reading from inside an .htaccess file. 2. You should probably just avoid .htaccess entirely. As the .htaccess tutorial explains, anything that can be done inside .htaccess can also be done in a <Directory> section in httpd.conf. So just use httpd.conf and everything is simpler (no need to bother with AllowOverride) and faster (the .htaccess files don't need to be read on every request).
