         <p>The <code>RewriteOptions</code> directive sets some
         special options for the current per-server or per-directory
         configuration. The <em>Option</em> strings can be one of the
         following:</p>
   
  -      <ul>
  -        <li>'<strong><code>inherit</code></strong>'<br />
  -         This forces the current configuration to inherit the
  -        configuration of the parent. In per-virtual-server context
  -        this means that the maps, conditions and rules of the main
  -        server are inherited. In per-directory context this means
  -        that conditions and rules of the parent directory's
  -        <code>.htaccess</code> configuration are inherited.</li>
