Tomcat WebDav servlet and webapp properties

2002-05-16 Thread John Trollinger

I admit that what I am trying to do is a hack up front, but any help
would be great.

I am trying make the webdav servlet that comes with tomcat like ftp over
port 80.  

What we want to do is allow people to change files for any webapp
deployed by connecting to the webdav webapp.  The problem we are having
is how fool the webdav servlet into using a different path.

For example take a look at the following directory structure

Tomcat
 -- webapps
-- appone
  -- directoryone
-- apptwo
-- webdav

We want the webdav servlet be able to be configured so that it uses the
tomcat/webapps/appone/directoryone as the root path when connected to by
a webdav client.

Is this even posible.

Thanks

John Trollinger

I hacked up a WebDav solution to a *person webfolder* requirement we
had alittle while ago. It's not that clever, all it does is
authenticate the user and take them to a personal WebDav folder under
the WebDav context. It's a complete hack and not exactly what your
after but mail me if you think it would help.
