[efh] server troubles

[Allucquére Rosanne Stone]

You're not doing anything wrong.  Recent security upgrades in the 
Apache server cause access to directories without index files to be 
denied.  This is in case you're accidentally keeping a bunch of 
private stuff inside your web-visible directory tree.  (This happens 
all the time, particularly when people store music files in their 
accounts.  Those turn out to be web-visible, which produces a lot of 
DMCA crap we'd rather do without.)  Sorry about the added hassle of 
having to create and maintain an additional index.html page.
