There must be a way - Managing users is one of the things that the admin webapp does. Maybe take a look at its source code? BTW, The admin webapp doesn't come with the default installation of tomcat any more, you have to download and install it separately.

The result of this is an update of conf/tomcat-users.xml I have an almost out-of-the-box WebdavServlet that requires user authorization. The users appear to be cached by Tomcat, and the "new" user can't access the webdav area until Tomcat is restarted. Is there a way to refresh/flush the Tomcat cache? After much searching, this appears to be a Tomcat limitation, but I find it hard to believe that this isn't a commonly desired scenario. Thanks in advance for any assistance, Cliff --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------ The contents of this message, together with any attachments, are intended only for the use of the person(s) to which they are addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
