Hi, Dear all
I'm using tomcat 6.0.35 on linux CentOS 5.7 using sun jdk jdk1.5.0_11.
I need to enable public_html for my user but for security reason, I
would like restrict the functions to serve static files only.
Can anyone tell me how to do that ?
Actually I can build tomcat from src and don't mind modify the code
base for this specific feature.
Can anyone help me to point out which source file I should modify ...
Regards,
Kim


Modifying the Tomcat code base for this seems to me a heavy, non-portable, non-maintainable, non-upgradable solution.
You could this with a very simple (*) Servlet Filter.  One may already exist 
which does that.
I'd be surprised if you couldn't do that with, for example, the URLRewrite 
filter.
http://www.tuckey.org/urlrewrite/
Rewrite URLs that do not point to static pages, to some error page URL, et 
voila.
(better : rewrite all /public_html/* URLs to the error page, /except/ if they end in \.(xxx|yyy|zzz))


(*) and light and portable and maintainable and upgradable
