Hi all,

Sorry about the multiple bug reports (kept tabbing on the submit) key.
I don't know if this is a bug or something else. When you make a request
without a file, i.e. http://www.mydomain.net/
Tomcat sends back a 302 redirecting you to whatever you've got it set up as
a welcome file. All very well, as most people don't notice it sitting behind
their browsers, but most search engine's policy is to refuse to even look at
the redirection. This translates into lots of people out there running
Tomcat being essentially bypassed by search engines.
I've had a look at the code which does this and was wondering if a form of
internal redirection would perhaps be a better choice? I'd be prepared to do
the coding (as our clients will probably go berzerk if they find out) or
does anyone know of
a simpler option?

Regards,
