A Tomcat-specific solution: Implement a Valve that intercepts all incoming requests (it has to be a tomcat-specific Valve rather than a Filter, because Filters are per-webapp). In that Valve, examine the request URL, determine which servlet it maps to, check whether then servlet is presently enabled or not, then either pass the request in or display an appropriate message. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
