I did a workaround by changing the name of dirlist.php to index.php. This makes Apache use this file as the renderer if the URL lacks the file specification. So this solves the problem for the directories which do have an index.php inside. But what to do for intermediate directories which are not supposed to be shown at all? I REALLY want Apache to show a "Forbidden" page rather than the list of files and dirs in the directory of the URL. >I even went as far as editing the >/etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf file and adding this to >the end of the directory block: > > <Directory "/var/www/html"> > AuthType Basic > AuthName "Restricted Content" > AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/private.htpasswd > Require valid-user > #Added to block dir listing and allow .htaccess to work > AllowOverride All > Options -Indexes > </Directory> > >Then sudo service apache2 restart > Question remains, why does this not work? Note that I have not added any virtual hosts or anything, Apache is straight out of the box except for Subversion and it has enabled the default site /var/www/html, which is the one I am trying to get working properly. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
