And some other google stuff.

What do you mean by {context}/META-INF?
What the hell is {context} ?

And still, how would it know which <Host> to use?

I'm not sure where you're looking -- which howto did you read?


: So, as far as I understand, you create a file called context.xml, and place
: the <Context> tag and all its contents into it (instead of keeping them inside
: of server.xml)...

Correct.


: Now, where does that context.xml go?  Into WEB-INF?  Tried it, didn't work.

{context}/META-INF

To answer your other question: this file is associated with the webapp
because of its location in the context dir or WAR file.  That's how the
manager app/Tomcat/etc know what to do with it.

I don't know what's up there now, but this was described on the Tomcat
site when I made the switch to using context.xml many moons ago. ;)
In fact, for Tomcat5 use of context.xml is encouraged.
