symbolic links in webapps

Hi,

Because i want to share several JSP pages between two webapps, i am using 
symbolic links in one of them, pointing to the other.

Unfortunately it seems that it doesn't work :-(

I use Tomcat 5 under linux Debian

Does anyone have a solution and/or an explanation ?

Thanks

If I remember correctly, symlinks are disabled by default. I think you can 
turn them on using an attribute value for an element in server.xml.
