Hello Tomcat experts,
I'm using Tomcat6 on my web application which is running on Windows Server 2003
Standard Edition.
I want to access static files (PDF) in the remote directory on the disk server
(NetApp) through http address from web browser.
I tried to use Windows shortcut, but It didn't work. Seems that Tomcat
recognize a shortcut as a common file (.lnk) instead of a soft link.
How can I access it properly through http in the IE browser?
I can only access the files if the static files are put in the local disk.
I tried to use hard link and junction, but they work only on the local disk (on
the same computer).
I tried to modify context.xml, but it didn't succeed.
Most of the solution in the internet is a soft link from local disk to local
disk.
Thank you for your clues.
I'm still beginner in Tomcat administration.

Are you sure that this is your problem ?
If you have installed Tomcat in the standard way, Tomcat will run as a Service, under a
user-id "LocalSystem". In Windows, this special user-id has no access to Windows "network
resources" such as network-mapped drives etc..
In order for Tomcat to be able to access such drives, you will need to use a "domain user"
to run the Tomcat Service.
This may or may not be your problem, but it is something that you should
probably check first.
