I was wondering, I saw the virtual host configuration documentation, and was about to attempt such a thing. So I should add an Alias tag, under a host tag in the server.xml?

Tomcat is literal, there is no catch-all like there is with Apache. That is, unless you have a Host container for your hostname or an Alias directive for an already existing virtual host, Tomcat will not answer the request. <Host name="localhost"..../> - will only take requests for localhost and none other <Host name="localhost"..../> <Alias>machinename</Alias> - will take requests for localhost + machinename <Host name="machinename"... /> - will take requests for machinename but not localhost John On Fri, 21 Mar 2003 14:32:17 -0500, Davis, Jeremy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I got red hat 8.0, jdk 1.3.1_07, and tomcat 3.3.1a installed.
