How to disable directory indexing from apache2 when going to the server's root?

Question

I need to disable that indexing when I enter on my root directory on a apache2 server, any tips?

Answer 1

Edit your apache2 configuration file which normally is on the dir: "/etc/apache2/httpd.conf".

Add the following or edit if your already have some configurations for the default web server dir (/var/www):

 
   Options -Indexes
   AllowOverride All
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
 

This will disable the indexing to all the public directories.
