And if they type the URL for a page that is down one level, what will you do
then?
You need to look at putting data in the session to check if they have logged
in, if they haven't you need to send them to your login page.
You gotta write the code, its not something that can be done just through
configuration. Well, you can do some things through configuration.

Subject: RE: default page
I'm going to try and clarify what I would like to do.
When I type in http://localhost, I do not want to see the Tomcat index.html
page. I also do not want to see the directory listing. I NEED to see my
applications login screen. It is imperative that the user never sees the
directory listing, but they MUST see the login screen wherever a directory
listing would show up.
My webapp is in the webapps directory. The login page is in:
webapps/myApplication/login.jsp
One directory deeper:
webapps/myApplication/userPages
contains all of the pages that the user will go to.
So I do not want the user to see the myApplication directory, or the
userPages directory. I now setting the StaticInterceptor suppress value to
true, makes the directories unavailable, but I need to see a user page
(specifically the login screen).
Sorry to be so verbose.
Again Any help is appreciated.
Chris.

in server.xml (conf directory)
add your context as the root context
<Context path="/"
docBase="webapps/yourcontext"
crossContext="false"
debug="0"
reloadable="true" >
</Context>

I would like to have the login page of my webapp show up when the user
enters the url http://localhost (or whatever the machine name is). I would
also like the login page to appear when the user types in
http://localhost/web-app-name . I am able to do this using Tomcat 3.1, but
I need to do it in 3.2 as well.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you
