TRACE disable problem with AIX

Following a number of alerts for WEB-MISC TRACE attempts, I decided to disable the TRACE command on our webservers using the mod_rewrite workaround described by Whitehats, namely inserting: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^TRACE RewriteRule .* - [F] in httpd.conf. This has worked on the linux server I tested it on, returning a 403 forbidden, as I hoped, but refuses to work on an AIX 5.1 system. Mod_rewrite is installed and enabled but TRACE requests continue to mirror the submitted data rather than the 403 I want to see. Has anyone else had this problem?
