Hey Mark- Thanks for the quick reply, and what you're saying confirms my assumption that the filter solution that is provided isn't going to work for me.
However, I claim that the initial bug report is *exactly* the problem I'm having. If the filter solution doesn't address the problem, then why was the report labeled fixed and closed? Also, I'm not quite following what you're saying here (which could mean I didn't explain my problem clearly):
The way the webdav servlet is written, it exposes the whole of the webapp.
Agreed, that's what I'm finding and trying to avoid.
Mapping it to /edit/* allows the content to be exposed at an alternative url.
Sure, but the content exposed would still be the "whole of the webapp", right?
The idea is that normal users access /your-app/*, a system admin can edit contant via /your-app/edit/*.
Not following what a system admin has to do with anything. The 'edit' folder would just be implied ... both "normal users" and "system admin" would still be exposed to the whole of the webapp, right? On 6/30/07, Mark Thomas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

The idea is that normal users access /your-app/*, a system admin can edit contant via /your-app/edit/*. To do what you want to do would require: - changes to the webdav servlet - placing the edtiable content in a separate (sub-)context - blocking webdav methods for urls that should not be editable Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
