Have your service() method throw an UnavailableException. See servlet spec version 2.3[1] (it's a great resource, easy to read, informative, well worth the cost of a free download) SRV.2.3.3.2 Exceptions During Request Handling An UnavailableException signals that the servlet is unable to handle requests either temporarily or permanently. If a permanent unavailability is indicated by the UnavailableException, the servlet container must remove the servlet from service, call its destroy method, and release the servlet instance. > and return to OS. > It's a little unclear what you mean by "return to the OS". From what you say later, you just want the container to take your servlet out of service (which is exactly what the UnavailableException is for). "Return to the OS sounds" sounds like you want a System.exit(), which is an antisocial thing to do inside a servlet container (and isn't guaranteed to work if the container has security enabled) -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
