It's the latter. I'm trying to avoid more than one war file across multiple
instances. I was hoping the urlrewritefilter had a global config, something I
could put in the tomcat conf dir, but couldn't find such a thing.
I'll go over to their m-list, as that'll be more appropriate now I think.
Thanx again for the pointer in the right direction.

I must be missing something here. Why would you want it to be "dynamic" ?
If you have several Tomcat instances as back-ends, then each one has its
own webapps, and each one of these webapps has its own web.xml, which is
where you configure its own urlrewrite filter. So what is the problem
in having it static in there ?
Or, wait, is it purely because you would like to be able to always
distribute the same identical web.xml to all instances ?
That would then become a more generic issue like "how do I distribute
the same war-file to several Tomcat instances, but have each instance
pick up something instance-specific to include in its web.xml at load
time ?"
Now, in this case I do believe that the urlrewrite filter uses a
separate config file, in which maybe there is a way to specify something
like that. Maybe then just that file would need to be instance-specific ?
