Have got the latest version of opensef [which is Xaneon Extensions for Mambo version 2 beta ] working fine using the .htaccess file with the below in it

have installed it in joomla 1.0.4

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|css|js|pl|txt)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php

but when i add the same to my httpd.conf file as below and delete the .htaccess file nothing happens help
and yes i do restarted the apache server for the setting to take effect.

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.mysite.com
ServerAlias mysite.com *.mysite.com
ServerAdmin admin@mysite.com
DocumentRoot /usr/www/mysite
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/(.*) index.php

</VirtualHost>

please note the last rule RewriteRule ^/(.*) index.php i have added the additional / as you need to do if adding it inthe httpd.conf file in apache.

anybody any ideas why it does not work

It should be:
<Directory "/path/to/your/site">
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|css|js|pl|txt)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
</Directory>
