Directory options directives are httpd.conf directives that can be applied to further restrict access to file and directories. The "IncludesNOEXEC" option allows Server-side includes, but the #exec cmd and #exec cgi are disabled. It is still possible to #include virtual CGI scripts from ScriptAliased directories.
