steviewdr Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 As scrupul0us said, you need to find your httpd.conf. You said you could not find it? Did you do a "search" or a "Find Files"? If its windows look in: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\conf If its linux, look in: /etc/apache2/ When you get httpd.conf, put the code, scrupul0us gave you. -steve Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/56367-disallowing-access-to-parts-of-directory/#findComment-282994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphiS Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 using linux.. with cPanel /etc/ has nothing in it that refers to /apache2/ ???

steviewdr Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Hummm.... if there is no apache in /etc/ it mustnt be a typical install. Check in /usr/apache or /usr/local/apache or /services/apache Now specifically, it is not a security risk IMO that cgi-sys is there. Are the cgi files listed when you go to http://mysite.com/cgi-sys/scgiwrap/ ? That would be bad. But if there is no listing of files, it'd be fine. Anyways, if you cant find httpd.conf or apache2.conf (which you should be able), here is a messy hack which may work: In your web root, /var/www/ create a .htaccess file with this in it: Redirect 301 "/cgi-sys/" http://mysite.com/ -steve Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/56367-disallowing-access-to-parts-of-directory/#findComment-285573 Share on other sites More sharing options...
