Funny thing, when I add <error-page> <error-code>401</error-code> <location>/customerrors/401.html</location> </error-page>
to the ../tomcat/conf/web.xml file - the manager app at http://mydomain.com/manager/html throws a 404 error. yes it is in the correct area in the file. So. It would be great if someone could verify this and even better (if true) submit a bug report. or not. i may or may not get around to doing it myself. so i guess for those interested - there you are. atomi
