Apache Index Files
Does anyone know how to change apache to allow directories to be browesable?
In an ideal situation I would allow browseing in /home/*/public_html/*
and not in the root.
I am using Mandrake 8.2 RC1 if that helps any. I tried netconf stuff but that messed up telnet and ftp login times. (There is another post about that somewhere around here)

This is confusing me. I have been reading all over and it seems like there are many options to do things I don't really need to do. I just want to have directory listing if no index.* is present.
Like the page that says
Index of /
folder
files
----
Served out by Apache 1.3.12 from 68.51.114.106
something like that.
I would have thought there was just a switch in the conf file,
but I can't find it.

Hi, I appreciate the help I have been getting, but still nothing is working. This is horrible. I thought there was some sort of allow indexing switch or something, but I didn't get that to work either. Apache ticks me off sometimes. But thanks everyone.
