exact, and that's why I propose you to make a new directory, ie /var/spool/tomcat4 ;) >I issue as well applies to any other case where a directory is >set which >may be used by other programs/users.

Ditto, FHS recommand /var/log/tomcat4 But since you're adjusting the normal location, I'm sure you known what you do ;] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
