Hi Jason, It is more like the last thing you listed below. I know that when fronted with Apache, that can be done, I thought tomcat had similar directory control that apache has without having to setup security constraints. You basically nailed it, I may have to tell my clients to just front tomcat with Apache.
Again, thanks for your response -----Original Message----- From: Jason Bainbridge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 13, 2005 4:27 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: How do I restrict access to webapps applications from browser users?

Are you trying to make it so the content can only be streamed from a JSP/servlet and not accessed directly via the web? (Often done for images and confidential stuff like documents etc) or Are you trying to lock certain users out of certain directories? If you are trying to protect static content you might be best off using Apache and utilising .htaccess files but it all depends what you are trying to do...
