I'm pretty sure that OS X server defaults to index.html (if it is present). Otherwise, it will display the directory contents of your Documents folder. I think that problem is that you need to give Everyone RX access to your Documents folder. This can be done using the Inspector or at the terminal using chmod. -Eldee ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eldee Khowong ([log in to unmask]) Senior Technology Specialist, Johns Hopkins University Language Lab (410) 516-7224 http://www.ugrad.cs.jhu.edu/~ekhowong On Wed, 26 Jul 2000, LLTI-Editor wrote: > --- Forwarded Message from David Kanig <[log in to unmask]> --- > > >Date: Tue, 25 Jul 2000 13:53:35 -0400 > >To: [log in to unmask] > >From: David Kanig <[log in to unmask]> > >Subject: setting OS X server to default to index.html > > How can I set an OS X server to automatically look for a page called > "index.html" when it receives a browser request for one of its URLs > that includes a directory pathway that does not end with a reference > to a specific file? > > For example: pointing a browser to http://www.language.brown.edu/LRC > does not result in a download of the page > http://www.language.brown.edu/LRC/index.html , but rather the > dispatch of a message saying that the user doesn't have privileges to > access directory http://www.language.brown.edu/LRC . > > (In general, we're finding the documentation for our server to be > very thin and are eagerly awaiting publication of third party guides). > > David Kanig > Language Resource Center > Brown University >
