[rt-users] minor contribution

[Raymond Norton]

I have been installing RT for four different schools and have just got the
last one working. I kept getting (as pointed out by seph) unexecuted mason
code for my index page. I had literally cut and pasted the VirtualHost info
from the docs into  my httpd.conf. I couldn't get it to work though, until I
replaced it with the VirtualHost info I found in the README file of the
current version of RT. It had a few more lines to add than what I found in
the docs. I am far from an expert, and could not tell you what part fixed
things, but it is working now. Maybe this could be added to the on-line
instructions.
