Well it seems like you are trying to bypass your companies security guidelines. Which means, either you are doing the wrong thing, or the guidelines are wrong. However, if you would follow the guidelines you will have to protect your configuration page from the outworld, and also from the developers, allowing only admins to change it (otherwise you are creating a backdoor into your own application) and you win nothing. > > So I'm trying make something that gives me (and the end user) more direct > and timely access to it. > I understand that there are companies, where you have to actually act against the policies to achieve a positive result (for the company), but maybe you should try to talk people first and try to change things a bit. If you use the word "agile" often, your chances to actually get limited access to the production system will increase dramatically :-) regards Leon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
