Suppression of directory listing in Tomcat

["Nikolas A. Rathert" <ni...@igd.fhg.de>]

Hi,
how do I have to configure server.xml or whatever to tell Tomcat that it 
should not show the complete directory to the user in case there is no 
index.html or something like that in the directory?
I know how to handle that with Apache but the htdocs directory has 
nothing to do with Tomcats webapps. Therefore, there has to be another 
solution.

Cheers,

Nick

It's configured in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml instead of in server.xml --
check out the "listings" servlet init parameter for the default servlet
(which is the one that serves static files in a Tomcat standalone world).
