Yeah. This sounds like a good idea. We would then have configuration files named: o jakarta-tomcat3.conf, o jakarta-tomcat4.conf o jboss2.conf o orion.conf etc...

That would be great. I would really appreciate that. If you really want to do so, then lets discuss the exact details a bit further... Regards, Ernst -- Ernst de Haan EuroNet Internet B.V.
