Getting a default page to load. (editing httpd.conf isnt wokring)

Hi,
I read that you edit the httpd.conf file to set up the default display
page, also you use . htaccess to disable directory listing, but for
some reason is doesnt work by me.

"DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php"

But when one access a directory for example like
www.mysite.com\mt\
it still displays directory.

I changed the default location of public files from
htdocs to public_html
is this cuasing the problem?


Thank you
