Thanks for the reply Serge, On Win32 I have the CATALINA_HOME set to pont to where Tomcat is installed, and were server1 resides. To configure CATALINA_BASE the same way, but pont to another directory that ONLY contains *conf*, *webapps*, *logs*, *temp*, and *work*? What would need to be in the conf - *server.xml*, *web.xml*, and possibly *tomcat-users.xml*?
