Hi,

No. Check the docs on <Limit>. It can't be applied to TRACE.

2.0.46 is REALLY outdated. You should upgrade.

But the rewrite stuff you mentioned should work in any version. It is
likely that you aren't putting it in the right part of the config file
(for example, inside the relevant <VirtualHost>). Otherwise, use the
RewriteLog to figure out what is happening.
