I realized a much simpler solution to this. Just create a 'index' folder in
your web root. Problem solved!
It requires the rewrite rules suggested in the docs though. Other rewrite
rules might not work.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -s [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -l [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php [NC,L]
Of course the server response you "should" want from /index is a "page not
found" but depending on your server configuration you'll either get a
directory listing or permission denied. To me this doesn't matter much as I
just want to prevent duplicate content in the search engines.
Hope that helps.
