Hassan, Thanks so much for the info. I am on 5.5.7. I was not aware of the Default-Context> option. That will be useful.
But it does not appear that the Default-Context applies to DataSourceRealms for a host. Is there a way to define a datasource for use by a realm in a particular host (without making the datasource available to other hosts?) Thanks again.

You didn't mention what version you're running, but take a look at this page for the <DefaultContext> : <http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/defaultcontext.html> > More generally, examples of server.conf are great.

It's not a single document, but the Server Configuration Reference (again, this is for the 5.0 branch, adjust as required) covers it all, element by element: <http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/index.html> HTH! -- Hassan Schroeder ----------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Webtuitive Design === (+1) 408-938-0567 === http://webtuitive.com dream. code. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
