---------------
Using Apache's rewrite rule functionality requires
that the 'mod_rewrite' and 'mod_proxy' Apache modules
be enabled. This can for instance be done by
configuring Apache with the '--enable-modules="rewrite
proxy"' flag during compile time or by loading the
corresponding shared modules. If you are using the new
Apache 2 series, you will also have to include the
'mod_proxy_http' module. See the
"Apache":http://httpd.apache.org/ documentation for
details.

The Apache link could be more specific to be helpful, such as http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/index.html

You might also want to tell someone how to verify whether these modules are already installed. Yes, you
shouldn't get into detail since that's in the Apache docs, but you're going to the trouble of telling them
which rewrite rules to use, and that's in the docs too, so you're already duplicating the Apache docs
somewhat. Anyway, I would suggest something like the following: "You likely already have one or more of these
modules enabled, and you would typically check by seeing what is enabled in the 'LoadModule' section of
httpd.conf. See the Apache documentation for details."
