I meant context-param, not init-param. I brought it up because Tomcat also allows one to specify context-params outside the webapp. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html (search down for context-param). The upside to context-param is that it's a mandatory part of the servlet spec. Is there an advantage to the JNDI approach? Is there an appserver that allows setting java:comp/env from outside the webapp but doesn't allow setting context-params? -Yonik
