Look up robots.exe on google. You can use this file to indicate what should be indexed and what shouldn't be. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Anze Vidmar Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2006 1:19 PM To: Redhat List Subject: stop web spiders hi! I know this topic sounds like a spam, but it's not ;-) I'm talking about web spiders that are collecting information from web sites. Is it possible to stop spiders to access specific folder on my web server? e.g. http://myweb.com is public, but http://myweb.com/confidential has some confidential files in it and I don't want them to show while searching google for example. The password protection (.htaccess) is *not* an option. I have "-Indexes" option set on this folder, but still not sure if spiders can read them or not? Thanks. -- Anze Vidmar <anzevi@xxxxxxxxx> -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
