At the top of the phpinfo, find this line:
Server API:

Does it say Apache or CGI

I've just noticed i have a possibility to add Apach handlers, but I've no idea how...
Is this related?

No. A 'handler' associates a file type with an application. With a handler, you could add an extention of ring_c to all your files (config.ring_c) and then tell the handler to actually run that as if it were config.php

Verify with your host that mod_rewrite is installed.

LOL Was checking out the cool rewrite rules...

This is what I do, I send it right back to where it came from...

Code:

RewriteRule .* http://%{REMOTE_ADDR}/ [R,L]

Yep, that's exactly what sending them to 127.0.0.1 does Wink
