+ The default .htaccess file may not provide adequate access
+ restrictions, depending on your web server configuration.
+ Be sure to check the <Directory> entries for your
+ Bugzilla directory so that the .htaccess
+ file is allowed to override web server defaults. For instance,
+ let's assume your installation of Bugzilla is installed to
+ /usr/local/bugzilla. You should have
+ this <Directory> entry in your httpd.conf
+ file:
+
+
+
+
+
+ Options +FollowSymLinks +Indexes +Includes +ExecCGI
+ AllowOverride All
+
+]]>
+
+
+
+
+ The important part above is AllowOverride All
.
+ Without that, the .htaccess file created by
+ checksetup.pl will not have sufficient
+ permissions to protect your Bugzilla installation.

If you are using Internet Information Server or other web
server which does not observe .htaccess
