I run a sever in my home network and I'm planning to go on-line. But I've noticed that when you type in a file name in the address bar it will come up with a page that shows all the files in on my server. This is a major security risk and I'd like to know how to stop this. I'm using Apache 2 to host my server.

There is a configuration setting in apache to not allow indexing. Can be done via apache http.conf or via the .htaccess

 

I think for htaccess it is something similiar to

 

Options -Indexes
