My understanding was that this is more applicable to senders' ISPs, rather than the receiving side. The best other option i could think of is using signatures, like Thawte's, however, this only appears to be a viable option on a voluntary basis (i.e., a subscriber could say, don't accept emails from me unless signed with ...). Many people might not like the idea of this being required. My 2 cents...

Peter Lin wrote: I'm inclined to wait until JCP comes up with a good way to migrate/support non-blocking approach within a servlet container. Event driven technique isn't new by any measure and has been proven to scale well. But most cases actually do not require the added complexity. Unless an application has to support a large number of concurrent requests/users in the 5K+ range, it's usually not cost effective. take SEDA for example, it breaks request processing into stages, so that each stage is profiled. If a request is for the same resource, the queue handler can by-pass the database call and just return the result. If you read Matt's paper on SEDA, you'll see the design goal was to handle /. like effect where a large number of users are requesting the same resource. The approach is powerful, but it would be difficult for someone with only ASP and CGI experience. Ideally, an API that hides the complexity of call-backs, thread sync and gives the appearance of single threaded processing would make it easier to develop and debug. For the last year I've been working on projects that have to support major scalability. Educating the other developers about async processing has been sufficiently difficult and a headache. My biased perspective :) peter lin Yes, if it's really worth the trouble, then perhaps this could be an option for behind-the-scene implementation, w/o changing the existing API. If this is at all worthwhile, in the ideal scenario, the container could toggle its mode from "thread-per-user", to NIO, to what SEDA does, depending on load, and some optional config settings. But i still don't know if NIO is just an equivalent of a fancy way of playing w/ max threads. :) Reshat Sabiq [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What would this benchmark look like if Tomcat also was configured to use a max of x threads, just like sse?

So try to make it understandable if you want your bug to live longer than 5 minutes ;-) BTW, there could be changes between PFD 3 and the final spec. Rémy OK. I believe the fmt is a non-issue: el does not consider instance variables in fmt. It probably worked in Beta 2 out of luck (implementation defaulted to default localization attribute name, or something like that). I resolved that. The last problem i'm having is that when requesting a folder with a parameter (e.g., /folder?param=value), when index.jsp for that folder is served it does not receive the parameter. This sounds simple, but makes applications unusable. Because of this, my migration to J2EE 1.4-DR is still in progress. It will probably be harder for me to fix this on my own, not knowing Tomcat's architecture and all. Has anybody else come across this? P.S.

It seems that Tomcat is reserving all ports # 80 for all IP addresses on this machine. This configuration was working correctly in an older version of Tomcat. Even though Tomcat seems to be reserving all port 80 for all IP addresses it is only responding to 205.200.21.30. Vice Versa is also a problem. If I shut down Tomcat and start IIS on 205.200.21.31:80, Tomcat will no longer launch on 205.200.21.30:80. It will report that the port is in use. Has anybody encountered a similar issue? Your help is highly appreciated. Thank you ___ A port denotes an application, so i'm suprised you were previously able to have 2 applications on the same machine on the same port.

I think it may be a problem with the networking setup on that machine. My guess is that the machine's OS (TCP/IP stack in particular) isn't aware that you intend to use 2 IPs, and probably needs to be set up accordingly using some applet.

Re: Fwd: Re: security hole on windows tomcat?
If the bug was caused by adding %20 to a page/folder in URL, then i didn't reproduce it in Tomcat 5. I got 404 (the only bad thing is that 404's don't appear to be customizable with error-page directives in web.xml). What would be a good list to watch for these kinds of bugs in Tomcat? Thanks. Paul Sundling wrote: Yes, adding -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false to the tomcat seemed to fix the security hole I discovered on my 4.1.24 tomcat on Windows XP using JDK 1.4.2. Great job finding a solution. It's a testament to open source and cooperation. Fortunately it's JSP source it's showing and people should have anything worth seeing in their servlets or EJBs anyway. :) Paul Sundling Jeff Tulley wrote: I just wanted to make sure you saw this -- Jeanfrancois made the connection that this issue has a known workaround, so you don't have to backrev your JVM if you don't want to.

The workaround is to add the following property when starting Tomcat: -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false Can someone try it and let me know if it change something. If this is not working, then point me to a very simple test case and I will file a new bugtraq bug. -- Jeanfrancois Eric J.

It's interesting that the bug doesn't show up in Tomcat 4.1.27. When 1.4.2 was released 4.1.24 was the latest stable build. Regardless the JDK/appserver/whatever should never puke it's guts and spit out the source code when it gets a request it doesn't know how to deal with. Upon failure it should result in some kind of error.

I actually finally WAS able to see this on Windows XP, but only if Tomcat was running on JVM 1.4.2. The problem did NOT happen with 1.4.1. Of course, JVM version is the one item I left off of my poll in my email below. :) I'm trying to verify this on other OS's and track down what the actual problem is. But, if you run Tomcat on JVM 1.4.2, verify if you have this problem.

So this issue is confusing. It seems that indeed there IS an issue, though most cannot see a problem. Talking to some people off-list, it seems that some think it is a JK2 / workers2.properties issue. But I'm pretty sure that others have seen this going directly to port 8080. We probably need to take a quick poll: If you have seen this security problem of being able to view JSP source, in what scenario(s)? Tomcat version OS version Directly to Tomcat (8080) or through Apache - JK or JK2? (If you've seen the problem, please include your workers or workers2.properties file, with a .txt extension) Browser version(s) url's where this was seen or not seen If you have seen this in multiple scenarios, and not in others, please list each separately. I have NOT seen it in the following scenarios: Tomcat 4.1.18, 4.1.24, 4.1.26, 4.1.27 Windows 2000 5.00.2195 Service Pack 4 Directly to port 8080 Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 with all security patches up to date I tried http://(url):8080/index.jsp%20 Tomcat 4.1.18, 4.1.24, 4.1.26, fairly standard distributions (only adding one JNDIRealm beyond the default config) Novell NetWare 6.5 Directly to port 8080, and through Apache - mod_jk.nlm Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 with all security patches up to date I tried http://(url):8080/index.jsp%20 and https://(url)/tomcat/admin/index.jsp%20 Hopefully this mail gets through; I haven't been seeing my emails show up on tomcat-user for some reason (I un/resubscribed today...)

jsp:include
Hi, There's a bug in J2EE 1.4 RI Beta 2 that prevents me from using a custom tag: instanceof operator treats TagSupport subclass as SimpleTagSupport instance. This leaves me only one appropriate option: subclass the class that implements jsp:include tag, and overwrite a method in it. I'd appreciate a pointer as to what class implements that tag. I've been searching through taglibs and tomcat-5 nightly builds, and have not found a single class that is related to jsp:include. Thank you in advance. P.S. Yes, i will be reporting the bug on sun's website. But i need to work around at this time... -- Sincerely, Reshat. --- If you see my certificate with this message, you should be able to send me encrypted e-mail.
