Disabled directory listing, but I got 404 instead of 403

[Torok Peter <netmano88@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear List members!

I have disabled directory listing in my Apache Apache/2.2.21 (Debian) with Options -Indexes in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Now if I navigate to a link which gave directory litsing earlier (eg. www.somesite.com/dir1, where dir1 does exist), I got a 404 error.

I thought (but haven't found in docs), that in this case I should have a 403 - Forbidden, error.

Now all of there directory listing requests fills my 404 logs.

I have checked in the custom log of the site, and there logged the directory listing requests as 404 also.

Thanks,

Peter Torok
