Hi,
I know my question is a bit off topic, but after googling for an hour I can't seem to find the answer. As I'm a regular poster on this list I'm pretty sure somebody on this list knows the answer.
On my website I'd like to publish some files, which people can download. I'd like to do it in a similar way as the http://people.redhat.com site See for example.
http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.5/RPMS.kernel/
Of course I can just type the HTML in all myself but being a programmer (equals lazy ;-) ) I'd like to have a tool which I can just run at the root of my directories and files I want to publish that generates automatically the HTML which is needed.
Thanks
Jaap
enable allow indexes. Don't include a page with a name that is one of the default page names.

Will,
I'm pretty much a newbie to making a webpage. I do not understand your answer completely. Should I change something to the settings of the apache server or so? I don't know if my hosting provider lets me do this.

Yes, that's what he's saying. The link to which you referred is generated by the web server itself, not any hand- or tool-generated html file. In apache 2.x, you change the configuration to enable indexes, something like:
--- /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf # FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory indexing or standard. # VersionSort is whether files containing version numbers should be # compared in the natural way, so that `apache-1.3.9.tar' is placed before # `apache-1.3.12.tar'. # IndexOptions FancyIndexing VersionSort NameWidth=* ---
Of course, your web hosting provider should provide you with an interface (often called a "control panel") that allows you change some or all of these settings.

I'm sure there are easier ways, but I've done this in the past using PHP for the heck of it when I was just learning it. If you have PHP on your server, it can be done easily.
