Depending on what they want you can probably either if you have Telnet or
preferably SSH access into the server as admin and su - to root, change
directory into the web directory of the site (Example: cd
/home/sites/siteXX/web). then Type:
chmod 2771 directory name. This will bring up the "Forbidden" message.
The other way is to Password Protect the directory.
Or of course just put in a blank index.html.
