Under Apache 2 on my PC's WAMP development environment I've managed to turn off directory indexing so that a Forbidden message is displayed whenever I access a URL such as http://127.0.0.1/

If someone can point out what needs to be changed in my httpd.conf file, or what typo's I might have in it, I'd appreciate it. Seeking to list the files and directories at http://127.0.0.1/ in such a manner that I can click links to reach subfolders. Had it working once upon a time, but have since messed it up somehow.
