>Description:
Using httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost localhost>
AccessConfig conf/localhost-access.conf
ResourceConfig conf/localhost-srm.conf
</VirtualHost>

Want localhost to NOT parse html files that usually are parsed. Only
solution was to modify conf/localhost-access.conf to use
<Direcory subdir-of-docroot>
Options None

Seems like localhost inherits parsing and I cannot turn it of for
localhost.

If you put <Directory> sections outside of any <VirtualHost> then all
<VirtualHost>s inherit those definitions... the same goes for pretty much
any definition appearing outside of a <VirtualHost>.  If you're using
apache 1.2b8 then here's what I suggest:

<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1>
    <Directory /doc/root>
	Options None
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost _default_>
    <Directory /doc/root>
	Options All  (or whatever you use)
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

The _default_ host matches and ip address that isn't explicitly listed.
If you've got multiple vhosts then you'll have the modify this a bit.

You can also use "Options -Includes" inside a <Directory> in the localhost
vhost ... which will make it inherit the rest of the settings.
