RE: [OT] RE: How do I config EMBEDDED Tomcat to only service requ ests from localhost?

Ahhh. I see that you even include an example of the RequestDumperValve as
a filter in the tree. cool.

for those interested, this is the statement in the build of the j-t-4.0
tree:

 <!-- The request dumper valve dumps useful debugging information about
           the request headers and cookies that were received, and the
response
           headers and cookies that were sent, for all requests received by
           this instance of Tomcat.  If you care only about requests to a
           particular virtual host, or a particular application, nest this
           element inside the corresponding <Host> or <Context> entry
instead.

           For a similar mechanism that is portable to all Servlet 2.3
           containers, check out the "RequestDumperFilter" Filter in the
           example application (the source for this filter may be found in
           "$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/filters").

           Request dumping is disabled by default.  Uncomment the following
           element to enable it. -->
      <!--
      <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RequestDumperValve"/>
      -->

So is there really any difference between the intentions of a 

Valve and the intentions of a Filter?

I was just curious. They seem to solve the same sort of issues, right?

OK, adding a Valve to server.xml worked great for a standalone Tomcat.

Now Part II, how do I do this with an embedded Tomcat?
I get the impression that embedded doesn't use a server.xml file.
Is there a way to make it read a partial one with the element I need,
or another way to set up this valve?

Thanks,  Mike
