apache Indexes question

I have the following Directory directive in my httpd.conf file
my intent was to disallow directory browsing at the http root level
but then in certain cases enable it at a sub directory level. can
anyone
spot what I am doing wrong?


<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
..
..
..

<Directory "/news/httpd/htdocs">
#RobM remove Indexes Options Indexes FollowSymLinks IncludesNOEXEC
Options FollowSymLinks IncludesNOEXEC
AllowOverride AuthConfig Limit Indexes Options
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>


<Directory "/classes/AE/324">
Options Indexes
</Directory>

<Directory "/classes/ABE/324">
Options Indexes
</Directory>

<Directory "/classes/CHE/324">
Options Indexes
</Directory>

<Directory "/classes/ABE/test/">
Options Indexes
</Directory>

This is the root of your filesystem,
try <Location /> to handle the root of your site.

I forgot the /news/httpd/htdocs part for
/news/httpd/htdocs/classes/AE/324

that was my problem
