Uploading .access files

[thadonnmeca]

I have a g5xserver and a g3 server running MAMP as the webserver.
I can see .access files on the g3 and upload them threw ftp.
On the g5 server running the built in webserver I can not see .htacces files threw the ftp client. After uploading threw the ftp it uploads correctly but click refresh or do anything and its gone.The file is there and the apache is configured correctly to read them.
But the .htacess file wont work.
Here is a look at it.

1) seeing .htaccess files:
the '.' at the front of the filename makes the file hidden under many circumstances. That might be the reason your ftp client can't see it.

1) in your apache conf file, what options do you have for the server root ?
