ftp? You mean telnet or rsh or ssh or something right? Anyhow, create a different instance of tomcat for each user:
Recursively copy the following directories from CATALINA_HOME to a new location (say /usr/tomcat/instance_n) to create a new instance: webapps temp shared conf logs Then change the conf/server.xml to configure unique ports. Then in the user's profile in the user's home directory export CATALINA_BASE=/usr/tomcat/instance_n Now when the user executes $CATALINA_HOME/startup.sh or shutdown.sh, it will stop and start his/her instance only. Additionally, you can configure permissions to disallow users to change other user's server.xml Did I understand your question? -----Original Message----- From: Pratap Parne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 10, 2006 1:25 PM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: solution to this scenario can any one tellme how do i implement this using tomcat tomcat would be running on a server.a user would log into the server using ftp and he has his own version of server.xml.he some how starts the tomcat runs his application and shuts it down.when other user logs into the server he should be having his own server.xml. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
