Apache Server Question from *nix Lamer

 A friend of mine is having difficulties getting Apache Web Server
1.3.9 to open up for directory browing......personally, I dont know
that much about it, but I told him I would research and see what I
could find out.  If someone could point me to a location where I can
get this info, I would appreciate it, I've been to apache.org and
checked the doc's out, but it looks like garble to me...guess I be
stupid....by the way, if someone would like to write it out in
detail....I would be overwhelmed with joy.

Yours,

Apache Server Question from *nix Lamer

I believe you change the DirectoryIndex option in one of the .conf
files (in redhat they're in /etc/httpd/conf/).  Can't remember the
details but you can turn directory indexing off (which is what your
friend must have set) or turn it on in with many options for how it
will look.   You don need to be careful what directories you allow
indexing in because in the wrong place it can be a pretty big security
hole....

1. Apple the not so *nix *nix

I have to say, I was starting to look at apple with a new eye. Then
went from the most proprietary operating system to running on BSD
Lite. But after trying to watch a quicktime movie I have lost all
faith. I can't beleive they would not open there codec so that *nix
could create a player, or even create a binary plugin that could be
used. This really gives me new spirit to learn assembly so I can
reverse the hell out of the Sorenson quicktime codec.

   sorenson and apple suck!
