Hi, xanaboy. Thank you for your question.
A feature of many hosts, including Apache, which your host uses, is
the ability to create automatic indexes of all files in a directory.
Many hosts disable this feature by default, since it could be a
security risk. However, in most cases it can be enabled by simply
creating a special file.
In the folder you want indexes enabled for, create a file called
.htaccess (note the dot at the start of the name - this is important).
Insert the text "Options +Indexes" into it. Save, and an index will
automatically be generated for that folder.
It is probably easiest to create the .htaccess file on your computer
then copy it to the folder on your server where you want it (in this
case, that would be into the 'cangku' folder) via FTP. However, if you
would like instructions on how to do this through SSH, please request
a clarification and I will provide them.
Be warned that this will not work if you already have a file called
index.html (or similar) in the folder, or if your webhost has disabled
it completely. If your webhost has disabled it, you will need to email
them and ask for it to be enabled.
More information about the different options you can put in this
.htaccess file can be found at:
http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/htaccess11.shtml
The following search may also prove useful:
://www.google.com/search?q=enabling+indexes+htaccess ('enabling
indexes htaccess')
I hope this was of use. If you have any further queries about this,
please don't hesitate to request a clarification.
Thanks,

I'm glad I could be of help.
THe answer clarification is intended to allow you to ask for further
explanation if an answer does not provide the information you need.
They are free, and you can ask for as many as you like, but they are
only intended to elaborate on the original question.
It's up to you as to whether you choose to rate a reviewer (although
we appriciate it!). Five stars is the best, one star the worst rating.
The money will automatically be distributed.
As for SSH, there is a tutorial for it at
http://www.webhostgear.com/35.html. Be careful, though; it's easy to
do damage accidently using SSH.
