Wasn't Sure Where To Post This - Possible Vulnerability?

Providing a directory listing isn't necessarily a bad thing unless there's some files in there you don't want the world to know about.  If you want to prevent the listing then either configure your server to not provide it (Options -Indexes in .htaccess I believe) or put a simple index.html file in each folder.

Just a blank one?

Well, actually, I'd like to do it via the .htaccess file. I know nothing of this so I suppose it's a good time to learn, but looking at it is all gibberish to me.

 

Where would I put the Options -Indexes?

 

Also, do I prefix it with RewriteRule?
