change this using telnet ..because if i edit this file in notepad and i try
to upload by ftp i can not...

thanks again for your precious help...

telnet is NOT secure and someone is going to get your password if you keep using it, especially since you tell everyone here you are doing it.
Make sure you have ssh turned on and configured (may have to turn off ssh1)
download putty or other ssh capable tool
 http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
turn off telnet in the GUI
use putty instead of telnet
download winscp and use it instead of insecure ftp clients
http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/
winscp uses putty for key info.

Many things on your Raq are insecure and can lead to you being hacked.
Posting here on the list will get people looking at you.
Telnet and Ftp are not secure and any hacker looking will try and capture your passwords as they will be sent as plain text via either telnet or ftp. Posting on this list about what you do basically means you need to be more secure. There are other ssh clients, the ones I listed are free. You can always purchase PowerTerm Pro or the likes.

edit /etc/httpd/conf/access.conf
search for .htaccess

# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"
AllowOverride AuthConfig Indexes Limit FileInfo

The above line is at line 52 in my file, make sure it includes "FileInfo"

If you add FileInfo restart httpd
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
