    Default Server URL shows directories

    Hello,
    After quite a bit of looking I still cannot find an answer, so I'm hoping
    someone here can help.
    For purposes of this email, I will call my server "testserver.anytown.us"
    So Say the public can browse to
    "http://testserver.anytown.us/oracle/data/land/lookup/index.cfm?fa=dsladdr"
    and get to a land lookup page, all is good. BUT, if joe public decides to
    browse to "http://testserver.anytown.us/"
    the entire directory is not only viewable, but browsable. How can I secure
    this?
    Any help is appreciated.

    You need to turn of directory browsing and set index.cfm as your default document/page.

    What web server (IIS, Tomcat, etc) are you running on the server?

    If you are using IIS turn off the Directory Browsing feature in the
    MMC site properties.
