The suggestions regarding .htaccess files will only work if 'AllowOverride
Indexes' or 'AllowOverride All' is already set.
Look for the string 'Indexes' in httpd.conf where it's on a line starting
with 'Options'
Remove the string 'Indexes' from this line.
If 'Indexes' is the only thing following 'Options', remove the entire line.
Restart apache
This stuff is all covered in the Apache manual -
