I have not installed JMS yet,

my question is about the proper settings for htacesss

I have a joomla installed on my host root

then I have subdirectories.

example /namenet
example /nameorg
example /namecom

in the /"root"

I have htaccess

will the htaccess control all the subdirectories? or will I need to turn on htaccess from htaccess.txt in each subdirectory?

i also have subdomains on the root they seem to preform okay..

with rewrite turned on and SEO/URL global settings all to yes.

with rewrite turned on in global in the subdirectories however, where I want to test JMS, if rewrite is set to yes, and the htaccess is not on, "name changed" the site will allow me to login the backend, but any changes log me out.

I assume this is htaccess, but need to get it right before I install your JMS, hopefully I have explained myself..

and hopefully its okay to ask here about this.
thank you
