I'm not sure I understand, but to remain consistant I reccomend only
using relative symbolic links that is...


BAD:
-------------
cd /var/www
mkdir test
cd test
ln -s /var/www/index.html index.html


GOOD:
--------------
cd /var/www
mkdir test
cd test
ln -s ../index.html index.html

your question "Is apache any configuration to avoid symbolic link across
documentroot?" is not worded in a way that I can understand what  your
really asking. try to re-phrase it. unless the above answers your
question of course :)
