Personally, I would like to have the choice to put my jsp/html/images etc.
somewhere besides the tomcat installation directory. It's just one less
hassle to deal with when you're upgrading tomcat.

Please respond
to "Tomcat Users
List"
Thanks for your help. It made things clearer to me.
I am using ldap to allow only some users to access webpages in different
directories.
Therefore it would be easier for me to keep the jsp pages with my html
stuff.
I guess I could try to edit the server.xml file and set /var/www/html as my
webapp directory,
but I might have to settle with what you suggests - put them in the
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory.
Thanks again for your assistance!
