Howdy, Yes, that answers my question very well. Given your configuration, the URL for your servlet is http://yourserver/news/news as the /news url-pattern is relative to the /news docBase of your webapp.
BTW, I doubt you really mean the privileged="true" in news.xml. It's more likely a leftover from a copy operation copying admin.xml or manager.xml. If you don't need it, remove it ;) Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics >-----Original Message----- >From: Philip S.
