Custom 404
Do custom 404 pages have to be set up with .htaccess files? Or can it be done through the httpd.conf file? If it can be done through the httpd.conf file how so?

I tried to do it through webmin and it added this to my conf ErrorDocument 404 http://mysite.com/404.php

But when i tried to enter page that didn't exist it never redirected to that url. is there something else I need to do besides adding that line to my conf?

Oh crap...do I have to just reboot?

Yes and configure it there at all time. Keep in mind, use .htaccess only if you don't have access to httpd.conf or you want to do something dynamically without restarting Apache.

You need to HUP Apache.
