I am using TC 5.5.9 on WinXP Pro here, but AFAIK the config is the same on Solaris.
Your remote server needs to have the manager webapp installed and enabled. It is installed in TC as standard (at least it is in 5.5.9, which I am using). However it ships disabled for security reasons so before the manager webapp works, you need to create a user in conf\tomcat-users.xml which has the manager role. You also need to make sure that there is a realm configured in server.xml to read tomcat-user.xml - again this is configured in the standard install. without this, the manager webapp will not run. //example content of conf/tomcat-users.xml <tomcat-users> <role rolename="manager" /> <user username="joebloggs" password="secret" roles="manager" /> </tomcat-users> Once you have done that, you can access the webapp through the URI "/manager/html/", and remote client PCs with the joebloggs/secret credentials should be able to deploy webapps on the server. > -----Original Message----- > From: Nehal Sangoi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday 22 October 2005 10:18 > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: Remote deployments in Tomcat 5.5.9 > > > > Hi, > > I am currently implementing Tomcat 5.5.9 on solaris10.
