What do the option FollowSymLinks and Indexes in .htaccess? [closed]

Answer 1

+FollowSymLinks makes Apache follow system symbolic links (shortcuts, if you would) in your file system.

+Indexes allows access to open folders within your file system, e.g. if you forgot to put an index.{ext_here} file down within a directory, +Indexes would allow list that directory's contents to the user.

Answer 2

FollowSymLinks means if a dir is a symbol link, follow the link

Indexes means a dir can be show as list if no index page.
