Default Directory listing
On your webserver/hosting do you allow directory listing? Is it good to disable it or allow it? I can't think of any harm a directory listing would have though. What are your reasons?

I would think it best to disable it. If you allow it and don't have an index file then anyone can see what you have in that directory. I think you can enable/disable it in the httpd.conf file.
