Description: Many organizations, for performance and security reasons, don't allow the use of AllowOveride and this precludes the use of .htaccess files completely. We should include a section that specifically addresses this: 1. Briefly discuss the relative performance and security disadvantages of .htaccess files, or at least point to such a discussion. 2. Discuss the possibility of enabling AllowOveride on a directory-specific rather than a global basis to address those issues 3. Point out that each of the recipes can be implemented directly in httpd.conf files without enabling AllowOveride and show how to do that for at least one of them 4. Include a recipe that rewrites the URL to a very simple cgi script (examples in perl, php) that would handle the actual redirect. This appears to be the way the recipes are often implemented.
