You actually don't have to worry about an Internet connection -- Tomcat
works fine disconnected from the network as well.  The reason this works
is that Tomcat has an internal copy of the DTD, which is used perform the
validation.  The only requirement is that the user has spelled the public
identifier string exactly right -- then the system identifier (i.e. the
http URL) is ignored.
