RE: has anyone configured ViewVC

Hello,
A few weeks ago I have also tried to install ViewVC in on my Apache Server
and got stuck, when the installation readme of ViewVC instructed me to

---
3) Copy viewvc.py, query.py, handler.py, and .htaccess from
  <VIEWVC_INSTALL_DIR>\bin\mod_python to a folder being served by apache.
Make
  sure overrides are allowed in this folder. The relevant parent directory
in
  httpd.conf should have "AllowOverride All" set, or at least "AllowOverride
  FileInfo Options".
---
Could someone give me an example or better explain what needs to be
configured and how to do so?
Thank you
-Dieter

I created a link -
/var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc -> /usr/local/viewvc-1.0.3/bin/cgi
so that I have
/var/www/cgi-bin/viewvc/viewvc.cgi
and then configured apache to follow links...
