tomcat6 and allowLinking problems

[Daniel Blumenthal]

I'm trying to use symlinks during development, but for some reason the
allowLinking attribute doesn't seem to be working for me.  I'm using Tomcat6
on a Mac Mini.
 
First, I added it to my application's META-INF/context.xml file:
 
<Context allowLinking="true">
...
 
That didn't work, so I added it to $CATALINA_HOME/conf/context.xml.
 
Finally, I made sure that $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/myapp.xml
had it.
 
Still no luck.
 
Anything I'm missing?
