Objet : Caching Servlet Output in Browser
Hi toms,
how can I tell the browsers out there
that he should not forget the output made by a (my) servlets ?
Even 'View Page Source' doesn 't show me anything.
Back always repost the FORM method.
ciao

In tomcat's conf directory there is a file called tomcat-users.xml.
There are a few user accounts already there (Tomcat 3.2.1), one is
called 'tomcat', having a role 'tomcat' (a bit confusing but Java
Servlet API Spec 2.2 might clear that up for you). Next set you web.xml
file up. Something like:
-----------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd">
<web-app>
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Demo</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>tomcat</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>Example</realm-name>
</login-config>
</web-app>
-----------------------------------------
should be sufficient to grant only 'tomcat' role permission to see the
resource of the site '/*' (basically everything under tomcat's control).
Note that this is done using basic authentication and there is no
encryption involved.
You might want to read JDBCRealm HOWTO if you wish to use an SQL
database to store user accounts and roles.
Hope this is useful (and correct :-)
