[ale] apache2 .htaccess?

[Robert L. Harris]

When I pasted the contents and the perms below I grepped the path/name
out of the files.  The names I listed below are absolute paths, not
relative to DOCUMENTROOT.


Thus spake Christopher Bergeron (christopher at bergeron.com):

> Robert, are you certain that your file path is correct?  I had a very

> browser?  If so, does it give you any specific errors?
