Directives enclosed inside a <Directory> block apply to that directory and subdirectories too, so you don't need to change every single <Directory> section. See:- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#directory Try it out and you have problems, clearly describe what you're trying to do, what's not working, what your logs say and what configuration you currently have. -- Phil --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
