I just created a subdomain to hold some videos - jpg & mpg. I would
like for users to be able to browse the files in my subdomain then
click on what they want to see/watch. Currently, going to that
subdomain gives a 403 and talks with tech support (at godaddy - who is
my host) suggest that I should use htaccess although they provide no
guidance.
In looking at htaccess, it seems robust for blocking users but I cannot
determine how to allow users to see the directory.

Thanks in advance for any help.
