Catalina Security : catalina.policy

["Steve W." <mi...@gmail.com>]

Can anybody supply proper settings for the Catalina Security ?

Right now mine look like the following:

grant codeBase "file:/usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/-" {
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "user.dir", "read";
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.io.tmpdir", "read,write";
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "org.apache.*", "read,execute";
//    permission java.io.FilePermission "/usr/local/nutch/crawls/*" , "read";
//    permission java.io.FilePermission "/usr/local/nutch/crawls*" , "read";
    permission java.io.FilePermission "/usr/local/nutch/crawls/-" , "read";
    permission java.io.FilePermission "/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp", "read";
    permission java.io.FilePermission "/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp/-",
"read,write,execute,delete";
//    permission java.io.FilePermission "/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp/*",
"read,write,execute,delete";
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "createClassLoader", "";
    permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

But only because the last line 'permission
java.security.AllPermission' was necessary to make my install work.

What in fact are the minimal permissions required to make Nutch work properly?
