Thanks David.
The context element I'm using is taken directly from the examples.
If you can tell just by looking, can you see if this looks correct for
Tomcat 5.5 (otherwise I'll just use trial and error and web searching to
figure it out).
Thanks,
Darren

Subject: Re: connection pooling question (posted correctly)
META-INF is if you pack your web app to be a .war file. Create the
file in conf/Catalina/localhost but name it after the webapp. If your
webapp is in the folder foo in the webapps directory, the file would be
foo.xml. Also be sure your instructions are for tomcat 5.5 as the way
the JNDI resource definition is written is different from previous versions.
