You could check out http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/, but I think that
mod-rewrite is a full Swiss Army Chainsaw while urlrewrite is more of a
santoku knife.
Went there, saw it, downloaded it. It seems to do what I want, and lots
more. Haven't tested it yet, but seems serious.
Thanks for the tip.
It does lots of the same things as mod_rewrite, a bit less in some
respects, but also a bit more in a Java servlet-oriented way.
Good documentation too.
From the look of it, I would think that if mod_rewrite is the 7-layer
Swiss Army knife for Apache, then urlrewrite certainly qualifies for the
5-blade level Swiss Army knife for Tomcat. Definitely better than a
kitchen knife, and way above what I could come up with.
Sample config file to do what I need :
<urlrewrite>
<rule enabled="true">
<name>Wrong IE auth settings</name>
<note>
The rule means that any request including Basic authentication
will be redirected to the indicated page.
</note>
<condition name="auth" type="auth-type">BASIC_AUTH</condition>
<from>^/.*$</from>
<to
type="temporary-redirect">%{context-path}/errors/IE_settings.html</to>
</rule>
</urlrewrite>
