Root Directory Listing on RH default apache
Hello everybody
[root@localhost root]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike)
# Install apache from cd or the latest one rpm
[root@localhost root]# rpm -Uvh /tmp/httpd-2.0.40-21.5.i386.rpm
==============================================
>From /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
#
# Disable autoindex for the root directory, and present a
# default Welcome page if no other index page is present.
#
<LocationMatch "^/$>
Options -Indexes
ErrorDocument 403 /error/noindex.html
</LocationMatch>
==============================================
It's true if you made a request like
GET / HTTP/1.0
Not true if you type:
GET // HTTP/1.0
If you have a simple index.html like
<html><body></body></html>
you aren't able to see the directory listing.
Well... a little problem but out there there are
lot of people that install default RH apache and
create "secret" (not linked) directory... :)
Well that's all, bye
TfM
