If you don't want to use pooling at all, you'll need to use the DB connection creation methods directly in your webapp - which seems to be a major step backwards. Security in a servlet container environment is normally provided by specifying appropriate role names and URL patterns in the webapp's WEB-INF/web.xml file. If you're rolling your own instead, you're doing a ton of extra work, and not taking advantage of the capabilities an app server provides. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
