I have a private directory with some files, I'm able to do an HTTP authentication but when I try to show the files in the directory I get a Forbidden Error. How i can edit my .htaccess file in a way to show the directory content?

This is my .htaccess now:

AuthUserFile /private/.htpasswd
AuthName "Private"
AuthType Basic 
require user member

You have to turn on directory listings. Add this:

Options +Indexes

Welcome to SuperUser, a StackOverflow service. You should have clicked "add comment" under the answer containing the line so the user will be informed, that way you will comment to his answer rather than answering your own question. Please wait for someone to migrate your post to ServerFault or StackExchange which will increase the chance on getting an answer a lot. – Tom Wijsman Jul 9 '10 at 16:28
