ok, i simply downloaded the Apache 2.0.55 release for Windoes from Apache. Thre RewriteEngine is set to on in the httpd.conf. God knows why the module wouldn't be available in the distribution. Do you know any documentation on how to install on module at all? The unix version comes with it by default I think.

Likely the rewrite module isn't loaded (check the corresponding LoadModule<br>statements of your configuration).<br><br>-aj<br><br>--On 19. Dezember 2005 16:33:59 +0000 michael nt milne<br><<a href="mailto:michael.milne@gmail.com">
