Allen,

There should be a tag called <ContextManager>. I have not seen Linux version
of server.xml but if you find this tag insert the child tag
<RequestInterceptor> as shown in following lines - 

<ContextManager debug="0" workDir="work" showDebugInfo="false">
  <RequestInterceptor
className="org.apache.tomcat.request.StaticInterceptor" debug="0"
suppress="true" /> 
<ContextManager/> 

Let me know if this helped you Allen.

Good luck !

Vinay

Vinay,
Sorry, Using Tomcat 4.0 standalone on linux.
that tag is not in my server.xml, where does it go...
Also, another person suggested that I do the following:
<init-param>
       <param-name>listings</param-name>
       <param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>

I tried that, it did not work.  What is the difference between your
technique and his...
