I currently start Tomcat with the Procrun Service Manager. It's an app called Apache Tomcat Properties with six tabbed forms: general, log on, logging, java, startup and shutdown.
To start Tomcat I press the start button in the general tab. I want to experiment with security, lock down a directory so that only authenticated users can get the pages, etc. The doc says I need to: Starting Tomcat With A SecurityManager Once you have configured the catalina.policy file for use with a SecurityManager, Tomcat can be started with a SecurityManager in place by using the "-security" option: %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\catalina start -security (Windows) Unfortunately, I need more specific instructions on how to do this (not the policy file changes, just the start part.) I'm on Windows XP Pro SP3 Please and thank you.
