rewrite URLs - help needed

I am trying to rewrite URLs for my forum and here is my .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteRule ^thread([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?t=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^lastpostinthread([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?goto=lastpost&t=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^newpostinthread([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^forum([0-9]+).html$ forumdisplay.php?f=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^f([0-9]+)-(.*).html$ forumdisplay.php?forumid=$1 [L]
RewriteRule ^post([0-9]+).html$ showthread.php?p=$1 [L]

I get: Internal Server Error

This is the error log

[Thu Feb 17 18:21:08 2005] [alert] [client 192.168.202.5] /opt/httpd/forum/.htaccess: RewriteEngine not allowed here


Any help would be great.

Thanks!
