Several pages deep into google, I found something that said to delete
the welcome page. I went to /etc/httpd/conf.d/welcome.conf and commented
out the contents. Voila, I get an index list!
Apparently, when there's no index found, the welcome page is displayed
regardless of the Indexes option. It'd be nice to see the welcome page
only if Indexes is not specified. Oh well, I'll leave that to learn
another day.
Thanks to anyone who looked at this.
