Hello Igor, Brent & Jeff (and everyone else ;-), thanks again for your quick reply! - and thanks for your http-redirect help!
Now I found another simple solution for setting up a servlet as a root of a web-application. I just define my servlet in the web.xml and map it to the url-pattern "*": <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd";> <web-app> <!-- Loadbalancer-definition: --> <servlet> <servlet-name>Loadbalancer</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.scaraboo.servlet.Loadbalancer</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>cfg_file</param-name> <param-value>Loadbalancer.cfg</param-value> </init-param> </servlet> <!-- map the Loadbalancer to any url coming in: --> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>Loadbalancer</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app> The drawback of this method is, that now _only_ the servlet can be invoked within this instance of orion - nothing else! But for our purposes this is just fine. greetings Rob Friday, February 01, 2002, 1:21:36 AM, you wrote: IC> Robert, IC> What actually do you need to see on http://127.0.0.1( this is default IC> computer url).
