i think richard meant sth like the following:

public class myServlet ... {

    boolean initForFirstTime = true;

    public void init(...){super.init(c);    }

    public void service(..){
        if (justInitialized) {
            justInitialized = false;
            // do what you wanted to do in init(ServletConfdig)...
        }
    }
}

but i think this won't protect any of your pages... to achieve that you
should consider a login action, after which, if the user entered a valid
login, you set a flag in his session and each time he requests wnother page,
you check if that flag is set, if true he is allowed to see the page (check
out the archives for further info on this issue)

hope this helps!
