           Summary: [PATCH] Allow admin to configure different IP address
                    for SHUTDOWN
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: Unknown
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: PatchAvailable
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P4
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


This is a pretty unique case, but we have over forty instances of Tomcat 
running on any given machine, each bound to their own IP addresses.  The 
problem is that the listener for SHUTDOWN always binds to 127.0.0.1.  Although 
the port number is configurable, it gets a little unruly to manage that many.
This patch expands on the ability to set the port, by allowing the IP address 
to be configured as well in server.xml.
I am aware of the security implications, that something other than localhost 
may be accessible from other locations, but I argue that it's really up to the 
admin to take care of that with good firewall rules.
