Just double checking, change my directory from:
<Directory "/www">
  Options Indexes FollowSyncLinks
  AllowOverride None
  Order Allow, deny
  Allow from all
</Directory>

to:
<Directory "/www">
  Options -Indexes +FollowSyncLinks
  AllowOverride None
  Order Allow, deny
  Allow from all
</Directory>

That looks like a garbage config.  <Directory> refers to file-system
directories, like /usr/local/apache2/htdocs, not web directories.
There is no FollowSyncLinks.  And there is no need to add the +/-.
Just remove the option you don't want (Indexes).  The +/- is only
necessary if you want to merge the options with the options setting
for a parent directory.
