In some circumstances, the “list” right has no effect on
directory listing.
According to Chapter 9 of the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Administrator’s
Guide, the “list” right is required to obtain directory
listings from directories that do not contain an index file. However, in certain
circumstances you can obtain a directory listing even if the applicable ACLs
deny the list right.
If you need to restrict directory indexing, disable indexing, as discussed
in Chapter 16 of the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Administrator’s
Guide, instead of or in addition to denying the list right.
