Also, is it possible to shutdown Tomcat from another machine (securely). I
have seen lots of message activity and code that restricts shutdown from
other machines. I actually need that functionality for our operations
group.
FYI: We had been considering an architecture with IIS/Apache as a web server
and tomcat as the app server. However, given the capabilities of our Load
Balancing machine which can cache static content for an entire web farm and
handle SSL encryption/decryption in hardware (I love hardware solutions), we
are considering using Tomcat as both web and application server.
