Individual folders:

Create a file called .htaccess in the folder.  If .htaccess contains the
following:

Options +Indexes

(no space between the + and Indexes)

the folder will show the directory listing of that folder.

There's also a way to set this as the default view in httpd.conf, but without a
.conf file in from of me I can't remember exactly how.  Will have a look later.
