    3 If you would like the url to be like:
     3There are several ways to obtain clean URLs in Apache:
    44
    5 http://<yourhostname>/
     5`http://<yourhostname>/`
    66
    7 or (maybe with a subdomain):
     7`http://<subdomain>.<yourhostname>/`
    88
    9 http://<subdomain>.<yourhostname>/
     9== Using mod_rewrite through httpd.conf
    1010
    11 there are several ways to do this on Apache:
    12 
    13 === Using mod_rewrite through httpd.conf ===
    14 If you have access to your Apache config, load the module mod_rewrite, then, place this in the config:
    15 (if you have subdomain, inside a !VirtualHost)
     11If you have access to your Apache config, load the module `mod_rewrite`, then place this in the config:
    1612
    1713{{{
    … …  
    2824}}}
    2925
    30 Or using !ScriptAliasMatch you can redirect all request coming to / without rewriting the URL to the user:
     26If you have a subdomain, it should go inside !VirtualHost tags, see [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/ Apache documentation].
     27
     28Or using !ScriptAliasMatch you can redirect all request coming to `/` without rewriting the URL to the user:
    3129
    3230{{{
    … …  
    3634}}}
    3735
    38 === Using mod_rewrite from .htaccess files ===
    39 Make an .htaccess file or add the following lines into existing if it's already present in your site directory with trac.fcgi
     36== Using mod_rewrite from .htaccess files
     37
     38Make an .htaccess file or add the following lines into existing if it's already present in your site directory with trac.fcgi:
    4039{{{
    4140RewriteEngine On
    … …  
    4645}}}
    4746
    48 Two RewriteCond strings tell Apache do not fire redirection to Trac script if there is existing file or directory with requested name. The last rule works always and redirects root site requests to TracCGI script. If you want to explicitly exclude some paths from being handled by Trac (such as /stats URLs or /phpmyadmin etc. usually provided by hostings) then insert the third RewriteCond right after the second one.

     49If you want to explicitly exclude some paths from being handled by Trac, such as /stats URLs or /phpmyadmin etc. usually provided by hostings, then insert the third !RewriteCond right after the second one:
    4950{{{
    5051RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(stats/|phpmyadmin) [NC]
    5152}}}

    53 === Easy access URL as a last resort ===
    54 The above configurations of Apache will not allow user to see "cgi-bin" or "trac.cgi" string in Trac URLs. However, if you just want to automatically redirect users from your site root to trac page - put a redirect in {{{/usr/share/trac/htdocs/index.html}}}, such as:
