Apache question
 

I have a Mandrake 10 community server that was upgraded / migrated from RedHat 9.

I believe that RH9 used apache 1.3.x and Mandrake uses 2.0.48. My problem is this.

On the older RH box, I was able to access this directory: *** GRRR wont let me post a URL **** (but it looks like this: h t t p : w w w . m y s e r v e r . c o m / b r o w s e / )and it would pull up a directory listing of all the folders and files with icons that matched the file type. You could click on a file or folder and it would either download the file or change to that folder. If there is a index.html file in that folder, it would open that automatically.

Apache version 2.0.xx either does not allow this type of browsing or its disabled from the .conf file.

Can someone direct me what to search for or change to re-enable this feature?

Sorry if this is posted elsewhere. Apache’s website has yet to post a FAQ for the 2.0 branch of the HTTPD server.

Thanks all, keep up the momentum!

In your httpd.conf file you should find usually under the Server Configuration a <Directory "/path/to/your/main/root/directory"> tag in which then you will see somewhere between these tags this:

Options

There you will want to put something like:
