Change Apache Vhost Default? about webmin

[jcameron]

No, this isn't configurable in Webmin. Instead you'd need to edit the file apache/create_virt.cgi under the Webmin root dir.

Thanks, i think thats a little beyond me, but good to know!

jcameron, thanks, your comment was a big help.

Just in case anyone else comes across this and wants to know how to modify the create_virt.cgi. Here's the changes to apache/create_virt.cgi that worked for me to add "AllowOverride All" by default.
On Ubuntu 14.04 and webmin 1.780 the file was in:
/usr/share/webmin/apache/create_virt.cgi

Around line 215 there is an if ($in{'adddir'} && $in{'root'}) {
In that if statement I made the change adding the "AllowOverride All" as such (changes are bold):

if ($in{'adddir'} && $in{'root'}) {
# Add a section for the root
$dirsect = { 'name' => 'Directory',
'value' => ""$in{'root'}"",
'type' => 1,
'members' => [
{ 'name' => 'allow',
'value' => 'from all' },
{ 'name' => 'Options',
'value' => 'None' },
{ 'name' => 'AllowOverride',
'value' => 'All' },
],
};
