DNS Host Name Check for htaccess file auto-lock:

New DNS Host Name check added that will either auto-lock or not auto-lock the root .htaccess file based on the Host Name Server. If your Host does not allow locking of your root .htaccess file with 404 file permissions then this will cause your website to display a 403 Error when upgrading BPS Pro, which then requires that you change the file permissions back to 644. If this problem is occurring on your Host Server/Website please let us know which Host you have and will add this Host to the DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK the root .htaccess file on upgrade coding check.
