+                <answer>
+
+                    <p>Use the <code>chainConfig</code> init param for
+                        ActionServlet to specify a comma delimited list of 
+                        chain config files.
+                    </p>
+
+                    <p>This will override the default value of
+                        <code>chainConfig</code>, so unless you are
+                        overriding the default request processing chain, you
+                        must include the default chain config file in the list.
+                    </p>
