I need some advice from someone who knows apache and FP extensions!

| The problem is that I am trying to combine Frontpage extensions on a site
with Joomla (mambo) and they both need the .htaccess file to their own.
FP extensions do not allow you to change anything there, and if you do they
are broken. SO I did some searching and found someone who has a solution but
its totally over my head. Here is the post:
http://forum.mamboserver.com/showth...8860#post288860
( I have pasted this post on the end of this post after the dotted line for
fast reference)
this guy means that he adds a file (what type of file I cant understand) in
a folder of the apache server. However I asked arround and people who know
apache say that that folder does not exist. Some say you have to create
it...
My questions are these: Do you think this will work, and how?
Can we do this without affecting all the other sites that is on my host
server (that are not owned by me of course). The person doing this will be
the administrator of the server.. I think that if it wont harm other sites
he will add this for me.
Thanks in advance!
----------------------------------------
OK, I got rewrite working without the SEF .htaccess statement or the other
verison with the unattractive /index.php/ in the URL. I put the following in
the virtual site in etc/httpd/site4/rewritecustom
LimitInternalRecursion 30
RewriteOptions MaxRedirects=200
<Directory "/">
DirectoryIndex index.php
Options +SymlinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
</Directory>
All fixed and I have both frontpage extensions, and SEF URL's
Thanks again!""""""""

| OK, so if you have no way to edit .htaccess, how did you edit httpd.conf?
Careful editing of .htaccess was all that was needed, don't see how it would
break FP extensions.
Messing with directory / upwards doesn't sound good to me.
