 * Hi Guys
 *  I have been building a WordPress installation for a mate, and after confirming
   that the rewrite function was working. I began securing the server and apache(
   1.3) installation.
 *  Once I had finished I noticed that the rewriting had stopped 🙁 I rolled back
   all the changes, and even tried using the default httpd.conf, but I could not
   bring it back.
 * This is the .htaccess at the moment
 *     ```
       Options None
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       ## Test rule##
       RewriteRule ^alice.html$ bob.html
       </IfModule>
       ```
   
 * I have been baging my head against this for a week now. I really don’t want to
   reinstall the whole thing. Are there any suggestions for troubleshooting the 
   cause for this?
 * If there is any relevant info I’ve left out please let me know 🙂
 * This is my info.php, pls note the site itself is of an adult nature and definatly
   100% **NSFW**.

 * I have created a ‘work-safe’ rewrite test at
    [http://webserver.adultvoyeur.com.au/alice.html](http://webserver.adultvoyeur.com.au/alice.html)
 * If the rewrites work, ~alice.html redirects to ~bob.html.
 * thanks in advance

 * I’ve decided it would be quicker to just rebuild. However since I am going to
   be copying most of my config files, I would still like to know what I have done
   wrong is possible 🙂
