I have a linux server and was wondering how to block access to the directory of the folder. such as now lets say my page is domain/services/service1.php now if someone erases service1.php to make it domain/services/ and hits enter - then a directory will come up and show all contents in that folder - how can I block this from happening?

Whats that?

If you use apache, you can use it's "options" directive.
You can put this in a .htaccess file at the place you want it active:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#options

<Directory /var/www/domain/htdocs/services>
  Options -indexes
  AllowOverride All
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
</Directory>
