Subject: Re: [users@httpd] RewriteEngine directive

Thanks for your reply.  I actually read the documentation which is where I =
learned that I can put Rewrite directives in the directory section.  My =
question is if there is any way to get around putting  =20
RewriteEngine on
in each directory section.  I have   RewriteEngine on   in the config file =
outside  the directory section but this did not seem to be enough and I =
had to put it into the specific directory section.

--=20
