I guess I didn't look very carefully at the Jetty documentation last time I was at the site. As I recall, I followed the directions on the wiki for setting the context and it didn't work at all. After several hours of frustration, I gave up and used separate instances.
Since you say it is possible, I'll take another look and will give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion. Chas.
