Sure. You probably want to put a META robots tag in the header of 
your Apache directory index files.

<meta name="robots" content="follow,noindex">

Well htdig only follows links. So if you make an index.html file and 
it doesn't have links to anything then you won't see anything 
indexed. If the server generates an on-the-fly index, it will have 
links to the individual files.
