I want to restrict access to webMathematica (2.1) on a Sun running Solaris 10, Mathematica (5.2), Apache (2.0.52) and Tomcat (5.5.12). Apache has access controls (various forms of authentication) so I think if I start Tomcat from Apache, I can control access to webMathematica. The problem is I don't know how to start Tomcat from Apache and even if I did, I have not found enough information to describe how to proceed from there. The Tomcat distribution, which I downloaded from the site suggested in the webMathematica documentation http://jakarta.apache.org/ has no tomcat.conf file, yet the Apache configuration file (httpd.conf) has a line (that is commented out) that includes tomcat.conf Any pointers appreciated. -- Dave K http://www.southminster-branch-line.org.uk/ Please note my email address changes periodically to avoid spam. It is always of the form: month-year@domain. Hitting reply will work for a couple of months only. Later set it manually. The month is always written in 3 letters (e.g. Jan, not January etc)
