If you’ve ever used Apache2 and .htaccess with the “Options Indexes” value to show the content listing of a directory. You would know that unfortunately Apache2 doesn’t show folders that are forbidden or password protected.

What can you do about it? You could try using “IndexOptions ShowForbidden” which states “If specified, Apache will show files normally hidden because the subrequest returned HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED or HTTP_FORBIDDEN" however this won't show Folders that are protected for some reason.

For instance, take a dedicated server hosting company that relies on one of many hardware vendors like Dell or HP (Hewlett-Packard). Its possible that said vendor will have stock pile of hard drives. Put lets put this into perspective. If you read the entire article you will see a similar situation that ended with Broadcom filing a complaint against Qualcomm. The International Trade Commission banned Qualcomm from shipping any new chips and hardware into the United Sates, and any chips that were already being shipped to the United States could continue.
