RE: [PHP] Q: Hiding Folder Directories from public while still...

2001-08-04 Thread Jack Dempsey

Actually it wouldn't be overkill or big...its really a small quick file
to setup...if you just put the index file in there, someone won't be
able to get a directory listing, but they'll still have access to your
files...if you put the htaccess file in there, they're secure...

Hmm so lets say in my "images"  folder for the site if I just put an
index
somewhere in there it prevents access?

Man that would be so cool.  I really don't need some big security thing
happening with .htaccess etc, that would be way overkill

[PHP] Q: Hiding Folder Directories from public while still...

2001-08-02 Thread Marcus James Christian

Hello,

How does one do the trick of hiding a  folder's directory listing from a
public browser?

i.e.  Lets say the full address is  www.mysite.com/php/magicphppage.php

Well I still need some other files to read and write to
magicphppage.php   I don't want the public to be able to simply type
www.mysite.com/php/ and have all of my php files show up on a funky
"virtual directory".

Thanks,
Marcus

RE: [PHP] Q: Hiding Folder Directories from public while still...

2001-08-02 Thread scott [gts]

if you're using apache, there's a *much* easier/secure way
of doing this.

setup an .htaccess file to restrict access to certain
username/passwords.

check out both:
man htaccess
man htpasswd
