The request made by the browser for the text file "/strutstest/css/adm_01.css" is handled by your web server. It never even makes it to the servlet container, much less the struts action servlet.
You should consult the firewall documentation or try a bit more debugging with your firewall software. I run a very restrictive firewall on my home server and it handles .css just fine. Good Luck!
