RE: JSDK 2.0 or 2.1
I have spent some time looking at ways to hide the
http://<hostname>/servlet/???
^ servlet
servlet name from the URL. I know that the internal servletrunner
requires this mapping. In the interest of security (hackers know
that this is a servlet) how can one go about completely hiding
the word servlet in the URL?
One method might be a remapping of the URL inside the web server another
might be overloading the class that requires the "servlet" prefix, but I don't
have access to the servlet runner source to overload the method :-( Property
files allow you to alias the classname, but still does not allow you to
hide the "servlet" name in the URL.
I know that you can partially hide it using frames or HTML
pages to drive it, but this does not prevent someone who really cares
from seeing that a servlet was used since they can see the "servlet"
path in the URL.
Any comments would be appreciated.
