yep,
start JServ as root with manual mode = On.
Servlet run as nobody because Apache default conf says to do so, and you
tell Apache (in jserv.conf, ApJServManual=Off, to start the JVM.
Maybe you can create 2 zones, and use 2 JServs :
zone1 for all you servlets : you'll start it under user xy (or nobody)
zone2 for your ModifyFile servlet. start JServ with enough access rights
(maybe user root).
