How to hide my web directories/pages?

[satujuragan]

I found my pages (asp, txt, etc) listed from my browser. How do I find or protect it?

I'm not sure I understand your question, could you please clarify? Are you talking about password protection, protecting the source code, or something else still?

Are you talking the Directory Listing that automatically comes up when you open a folder with no defined index page? For example, if you have a folder called /images/ with no "index.htm" or index page, some configurations of your web server will automatically print out a list of all files in that directory. However, your asp code or any server-side code will not be visible to the public, as long as it's being parsed as ASP code and has an "asp" extension, not "inc" or something.

I think this is what you're talking about and there's a configuration option to turn it off, to look something like this page: [nonstop.compaq.com...]

Google for "disable directory listing" + Apache or "disable directory listing" + IIS, depending on your web server, and you should find instructions on how to turn it off.

The alternative would be to put an index.htm or index.asp file in that folder.
