Struts maintains internal copies of the DTDs it uses (for
struts-config.xml and web.xml). As long as you use the correct public
identifier on your configuration files (and your XML parser is correctly
implemented) you should be able to run with no problems, without trying to
access the network fr the DTDs. In fact, I run Struts-based apps all the
time on a completely disconnected laptop (with Tomcat and JAXP/1.1) with
no problems.
