I've downloaded a Lamp vmware virtual machine based on Ubuntu called Grandma Lamp. When i try to set the .htaccess settings, it does not take. Even the simple ones to prevent ini files from showing.

Just curious if there is something in an apache configuration file somewhere that I have to set this up in.

Thank yall kindly for any answers.

Best regards.

Probably the apache config file has AllowOverride set to None. Change it to all:

Hope this helps.

Thank you kindly Mr. Steve. I will try it in the morning when I get into the office. If it works then my servers will be back online. Though I am also setting up the puppy vmmachine that I gave a link to here a while ago since it does work..but its WIDE open..no security as it uses Xamp...so hopefully with your suggestion I can have a bit more secure server.

Thanks again bro.
