Well that is not to this topic. vhosts do not decrease the security from apache. The things that make it weaker against attacks are the software / scripts you run on. Apache itself out of the box is solid. |

If you realy need the .htaccess than yes. But is better to Leave AllowOverride to none and put the .htaccess stuff into the config of the vhost. Else apache will read the .htaccess with each request that makes it slower. The config file is only read once while startup. For that see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/howto/htaccess.html#when |
