Re: [Plug] apache question


Yeah, usually I can find all of my questions about apache on their site,
and I already checked my Options line, this is what I have:
 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
But upon further investigation of httpd.conf, I see that there is options
under <Directory /> and <Directory "/home/httpd/htdocs"> for options and
only one of them had the Indexes.
So that fixed it. Thanks
