first,

	apt-get install apache-doc

then look under /usr/share/doc/apache/manual/mod/index.html for

	core -->
		<location>
		<directory>
		<files>
	mod_autoindex -->
		indexoptions
		addiconbytype
		fancyindexing
		...and others...
	mod_dir -->
		directoryindex

some really cool things to mess with (and mess up).

save your working httpd.conf before you munge it, by the way.

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #46 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com> 
:
Troubled by MAC-FORMAT TEXT FILES? There are many ways
to translate CR to LF. VIM can help, with these steps:
	:set ffs=mac
	:e!
	:set ff=unix
and then save/write the file (":opt" for more info).
In perl, this'll do the trick:
	perl -pi.mac -l12 -015 -e ';' filename*pattern.txt
(that's a <hyphen-el-one-two> and <hyphen-zero-one-five>, by
the way -- see "perldoc perlrun" for more info.)
