[cobalt-users] RAQ3 how do you disallow index viewing?



Hi,

New Apache user here.  Trying to escape from the gravitational pull of my MS
IIS systems so any help appreciated :)

I'd like to disallow viewing of indexing so that when someone enters
http://www.website.com/dir1/  they do not see the index of the files.

I'm looking at my shiny new "Linux Apache Web Server Admininstration" book
and it looks like I have to update IndexOptions but when I look at the
httpd.conf on my raq3 I don't see anything about indexing except for the
foillowing line that lists names of files to use as root default display
files:

DirectoryIndex  index.html index.htm index.shtml index.php index.php3

The web server was originally set up by our ISP and has been online in
production for months without problems.

I also searched the Cobalt user list archives but couldn't find the answer.

Can someone tell me how they do this on a raq?

TIA!
Ray
