These directives add a vhost with the rewriting rules needed to for WordPress' URI rewriting to work. The exact configuration added can be seen in /afs/hcoop.net/user/d/do/domtool/lib/web_apps.dtl If you try the configuration out you can also see the resulting Apache configuration with $ domtool-admin describe your.domain I know configuration with .htaccess was enabled on mire for a while.
