Apache server 2.0 Need help

[DoctorX]

I need some help with the httpd.conf file for a http home server I'm setting up using Apache 2.0. No domain name yet, just IP.

Problem is, if the visitor types in a directory other than the home web directory what they see is a list of all the files in that directory, which I don't want. Was wondering if there was a way to modify the httpd.conf file so these files don't show up. I currently using a redirect index file in each directory as a work around.

Using a Windows machine with an http daemon.

Do you have the "Indexes" option enabled for these directories? Or the "All" option? Like this?:

<Directory /web/docs>
Options Indexes
</Directory>

It shouldn't show the list of files unless Indexes or All (which enables all options including Indexes) is specified. Try saying "Options None" or remove "Indexes" from that line if you require other options.
