By "I can ftp to ..." I meant I was able to ftp to the host where tomcat runs as a regular user, say, yzhang. But ftp access as user "root" is disabled, if Tomcat uses FTP to do put, which user does it use by default, "tomcat" or "root" or something else?
Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Propes, Barry L [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 3:44 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Tomcat 5.5.17 rejects PUT request I'll have to double check...maybe not, but I was thinking it did. -----Original Message----- From: YuanGao Zhang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 5:43 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Tomcat 5.5.17 rejects PUT request I don't think so. I can ftp to the host where tomcat runs. Does Tomcat rely on FTP for processing put requests? -----Original Message----- From: Propes, Barry L [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 3:30 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Tomcat 5.5.17 rejects PUT request maybe the FTP port is blocked? Isn't that what PUT essentially does? -----Original Message----- From: YuanGao Zhang [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 5:27 PM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: Tomcat 5.5.17 rejects PUT request Hello, I'm new to tomcat and have problems to have tomcat 5.5.17 accepting a PUT request. I tried GET, POST, and PUT. Both GET and POST work fine, but PUT is rejected with 403 - "Access to the specified resource () has been forbidden".

I used tocat 4.1.31 which also rejects PUT.
