Perhaps that's an artifact of whatever platform or JVM you're using, but 5.5.20 as released does not require the slash on our proprietary system nor on any Windows box I've tried. The default servlet (the one normally generating directory listings) does initially return a 302 status with a modified URL including the trailing slash, which a browser will immediately resubmit. Is this what you're referring to? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
