I'm sorry Martin, that makes little sense to me. This thing is setup by defaults to point to /var/www/html/mythweb and execute mythweb.php. It isn't supposed to display a file index, so disabling Autoindex seems the way to go. I don't think I need DirectoryIndex because I dont' want a directory -- I want it to execute the mythweb.php script.
