mkdir permissions and AllowOverride

Im getting a permission denied when I try to mkdir. What I can deduce is that PHP is running under the user nobody through apache. I need to be able to add the web root to the directories that user nobody can use. There is a default line in the httpd.conf that has AllowOveride set to None. If I change this to AllowOverride to All, will that fix the problem? Is that recommended?
