please do your best from assuming im a total moron, because i can assure that not only is google something I use alot, but i have ATTEMPTED to follow all the syntax mentioned in all the java.com documentation which is WHY i have turned to this mailing list.
So please ASSUME that i actually NEED help, not a bunch of half-assed google links!!
for crying out loud...
to rephrase my question:
I have fully attempted to restrict my JSP page's ability to read and write files. my catalina.policy section currently looks like this:
grant {
permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>", "read";
permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>", "write";
permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>", "execute";
};this is obviously dangerous, and I have done everything in the "<<ALL FILES>>" section to get catalina to restrict the file privileges to a couple of specific directories, such as:
"/home/seaver/-"
starting up catalina with the security manager produces no problem, but the files im trying to write, refuse to be written, as if they can't be written anywhere.
With the "<<ALL FILES" token, it DOES work, so I must be missing something here?
anybody who thinks i might need a little more than a generic google search, pls help me out...

Two minutes of googling (see [1] and [2]) brought up [3] which is IMO exactly what you want. Always remember: Google is your friend!
