If you are using Apache httpd to front your Tomcat, you can probably use either mod_rewrite (upon which the above urlrewrite was based) or the simpler RedirecrPermanent directives to achieve the same goal. I believe Apache httpd configuration might be a bit simpler, but don't add Apache httpd to your configuration just for this -- it would be a huge waste of effort and added complexity. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkgQvN4ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCzKACdGi0QMyJLcRaZQthBuBjDfmYJ Ei4AnjhBd5Lkl31zzG/diVHjhmONdJRU =OIqw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
