You could set up a virtual <Host> for each user, thereby giving each one his/her own appBase. This is easily done statically, but adding <Host> elements on the fly is a bit trickier. The admin app of prior Tomcat levels could accomplish this, but it has not yet been made available with Tomcat 6. If you need to create <Host> elements dynamically, you'd need a bit of code to insert them into the Catalina container while Tomcat is running. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
