you mentioned admin? ..for the most part i would suggest using JMXBean instead
with JMX you are installing a listener on a different port so there is no 'conflict' with default webapp of Tomcat ROOT..you can pretty much view available TC parameters with this tool If you dont see a specific or group of parameters that you need to see let us know more information is available at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/monitoring.html hth Martin Gainty ______________________________________________ Please do not alter/modify or disrupt this transmission.
