# Override Class Index for .htaccess

This is an index of the directives that are allowed in .htaccess files for various `AllowOverride` settings, organized by class. Its intended purpose is to help server administrators verify the privileges they're granting to .htaccess users. For an overview of how .htaccess works, see the .htaccess tutorial.

To determine the set of directives that your server configuration allows .htaccess users to use:

1. Start with the set of directives in the `AllowOverrideList` for the directory in question. (By default, this is set to `None`.)
2. Find the `AllowOverride` setting for the directory in question. (By default, it is set to `None`.) There are two special cases:
   1. If your `AllowOverride` setting is `All`, add every directive listed on this page to the list.
   2. If your `AllowOverride` setting is `None`, you're done. Only the directives in the `AllowOverrideList` (if any) will be allowed.
3. For each override class listed in `AllowOverride`, look up the corresponding set of directives below and add them to the list.
4. Finally, add the set of directives that is always allowed in .htaccess (these are listed in the All section, below).

Several of the override classes are quite powerful and give .htaccess users a large amount of control over the server. For a stricter approach, set `AllowOverride None` and use `AllowOverrideList` to specify the exact list of directives that .htaccess users are allowed to use.
