There is a way to fix this on Apache, and a very easy one at that.
Go into your httpd.conf file and look for a set of lines that look something
like:
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.shtml
</IfModule>
The DirectoryIndex directive lists, in order, which pages the server should
look for when it receives a request ending in /. As you can see, my config
looks for an index.php file, followed by an index.shtml file. If it fails
for both of these, I *think* it will return an HTTP 404 error.
