Im hosting several sites on a single jetty install - its working perfectly right now. Are you not familiar with the virtual hosting options in jetty? Its pretty well documented on their wiki and will let you host from the root context.
Someone can correct me if im wrong, but until servlet 3.0 spec comes out, I believe were only supporting comet in Jetty. So if your planning a move to Glassfish, you'll loose the comet support. Can you not use the context deployer in jetty to do what you need? Thanks Tim On 16/03/2009 13:07, "Charles F.
