You can see the file name only. The container is correct. You can only see the file when using DAV. I have done away with .htaccess and am setting up a directory in the main conf for every place I would change something with .htaccess... Bummer in that it removes user control and I field more requests for simplistic changes. -----Original Message----- From: plug-discuss-bounces@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us [mailto:plug-discuss-bounces@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us] On Behalf Of Jeremy C.

That "Deny" is not related to directory listings which for Apache httpd is commonly handled by IndexIgnore. Double check that your Files container is for the entire server and not just a virtual host. Also try adding to my example within the Files container: Satisfy All (Are you using Satisfy Any in your authentication?) Jeremy C.
