Apache Config help

[biggyb]

IMPORTANT: Do not forget to protect your ./CONFIG folder by using apache config.
Example httpd.conf

<Directory "C:/wamp/www/yourtrackerfolder">
Options -Indexes +FollowSymlinks +MultiViews -SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AllowOverride all
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

How would I go about doing this? So far I make a blank .txt file, fill it with this information, change the directory to what I think is correct (It is on a webserver, not locally) and then put it in the config folder. Is this correct? Could someone clarify?

Also how do I get the correct server directory?

I do all this and when seeding still get a tracker 403 error so something must be wrong.

Please help.

Use a .htaccess file

[biggyb]

ok so I got a .htaccess file and here is the contents

<Directory "/home/torrents/public_html">
Options -Indexes +FollowSymlinks +MultiViews -SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AllowOverride all
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Where do I put it? Just in the config folder?

put it in all the directories that do not have an index.php, or index.html file,
that way you are protected from the ones who wants to see your folders contents .

in the root dir, I reccomend this file (only for windows versions):

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

<Files .htaccess>
    order allow,deny
    deny from all
</Files>

ErrorDocument 400 /ts_error.php?errorid=400
ErrorDocument 401 /ts_error.php?errorid=401
ErrorDocument 403 /ts_error.php?errorid=403
ErrorDocument 404 /ts_error.php?errorid=404
ErrorDocument 500 /ts_error.php?errorid=500

php_flag short_open_tag on

if, by chance it gives you an error, use the code below:

in the config folder:

Order allow,deny
deny from all
<FilesMatch "\.(php|asp|php4|php5|cgi|perl)$">
ForceType text/plain
</FilesMatch>
