[cobalt-developers] .htaccess files and authentication

[Eric Beck <admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Can anyone tell me ...

Why is there a problem putting an .htaccess file in a site's web directory,
and then you get a server error, like it doesn't want to allow it.  I've
looked in the access.conf file, and it looks like overrides are allowed, so
what gives?   I've been doing this with BSDi for years.
