Hi Bob,

In version 4.x Tomcat look for the file <TOMCAT_HOME>/conf/web.xml

This file sets all the default web application settings.  Look for the tag
sequence: -

  <param-name>listings</param-name>

And change the <param-value> tag below it from 'true' (the default setting)
to false.

Hope that helps.

Subject: Newbie Q:How to prevent Directory listing in Tomcat?


How can I prevent a client from listing the contents of my web appl. 
directories without having to put an 'index.html' in the base of each
directory?

Thanks.

Bob.

P.s.: I can find any solution(s) in the Tomcat-user archive:
