David,
Try as I might, I could not reproduce this with Tomcat 3.2 -- it always seems
to call my init() method once and only once like it is supposed to. The only
thing I can think of that might trigger what you are seeing is if you edited
the file $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml instead of the web.xml inside your web
application -- that would cause the servlet to get loaded once per web
application (at least under 3.1).
If this is not what you did, could you please zip up a copy of the web
application directory you are using, so that I can reproduce exactly what you
are seeing?
