Looks like you don't have mod_rewrite enabled. Probably you're on Debian or Ubuntu which have a pretty modular Apache so you need to check if you actually installed the necessary module.

On CentOS there is a line like this in httpd.conf::

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

That line will load mod_rewrite and then 'RewriteEngine on' should work as well (assuming of course the module itself is installed).
