I would suggest that you get clustered sessions working for these apps and then share them across multiple tomcats. This would allow you to upgrade half your servers while the other half are happily serving pages and then you throw the switch and they move to the upgraded cluster and you can upgrade the other half. This approach will save you LOTS of headaches. --Angus --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
