If it is an apache server, then you can use the .htaccess file to 
address both issues.  First, the phrase you're looking for is "Directory 
Listing", and should be in the Apache documentation (or in the config 
files themselves...).  If you're not on Apache, there's a check box for 
this on the other web server... :)

Depending on how secure you want the folder to be, look into the various 
options with the .htaccess and .htpassword files...  (again, if the 
server is Apache).

We've all had those moments (was troubleshooting a power supply and 
motherboard problem the other day... frustrated no end cuz the system 
wouldn't boot up... after I pulled the power supply I noticed the wall 
end wasn't plugged in.. DOH!!)

Hope this helps.  I'd dig deeper and give you the specific commands for 
Apache, but I was just getting ready for bed...
