Why "surely"? The docs are pretty clear that it is an additive list. A quick look at the source (modules/generators/mod_autoindex.c, look for add_ignore method) shows that it just pushes the pattern onto an array every time it finds an IndexIgnore. Having the ability to reset or subtract from the list would be "nice" but seems like it would be quite complicated to add to the code in a robust way (you'd also need a new directive). Some developers might complain of feature creep... Wacky off-the-top-of-my-head, untried, untested "workarounds": - Make a separate VH, on port 8080 for example, with docroot set to the target dir and have no IndexIgnore in this VH. Then, in the main VH, proxy requests for that dir to the port 8080 VH. Maybe that would work? - a one-off hack to suit your situation: Extend the add_ignore method so that if it encounters a certain pattern (eg, CLEAR_INDEX_IGNORE_LIST), then it empties the array. You could then put "IndexIgnore CLEAR_INDEX_IGNORE_LIST" in the directory you want to free up. [NB - no idea if this would really work - it might clear the list for all dirs!)
