deny indexing from apache

[mIDO]

hi, somebody knows how to deny indexing a directory?
For example, if apache doesn't find any index file(index.htm,index.php...) by default apache show a full list of the files inside the folder. How can i deny this listing? (i've seen that redirects to a 403 page, forbidden)


thanks

This can be setup in cPanel for the particular domain.

Hmm; I wonder, is there perhaps
a way (perhaps a PHP.ini file to a certain folder?)
to make it so all sites I host, if it goes to a folder
that does not have a index file (index.htm, .html, etc.)
could it automaticly be directed to a page I setup?

thanks andrew, i hadn't seen this option.
Now it works

If my thinking is correct, if you setup the option in cPanel to deny access to folders without an index file, then any person trying to access said folder will be thrown a 403 error.

So to get a 403 to point to a custom page, you'd setup a .htaccess file like so:

ErrorDocument 403 /error.php
