There is no way currently. I have a patch on my local machine which
allows add this functionality for FileDirContext.
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/resources.html
<Context path="/x"
docBase="/usr/local/crap">
<Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext"
aliases="/a1=/mypath/images;/a2=/foopath/images" />
</Context>
But I haven't had time to see if my patch is secure or compliant if
someone uses the WebDav servlet.
In the meantime - your best alternative is to use sym links.

I am converting from Resin and there I can map a directory not inside

as below:
<path-mapping>
<url-pattern>/files/*</url-pattern>
<real-path>/realdir/files</real-path>
</path-mapping>
I can't seem to find a way in Tomcat to do that. Do I have to write my
own filter? Any tips or help appreciated.
