Hi All,

I am new to Apache and with IIS background. I have about 5 web sites hosted on my Apache server. I want to disable directory browsing for just one web site 'XYZ' and not for other 4. Please help me here in detail.

Thanks

I am assuming you have virtual hosts within your webserver. You can just disable Options Indexes for that particular domain.

You can edit your apache httpd.conf for that. Read more about Options Indexes and httpd.conf to get more details.

You can add the following to each .htaccess file in the root of the website/domain:

Options -Indexes
