Serving outside of webapps

Hello all,

I have a folder containing sensitive data under webapps which is currently
being mapped by the application to serve on the web. However, I would like
the data folder to be outside of webapps so noone can access the files by
typing in the URL. Can TomCat serve pages outside of the webapps for eg: on
C:/data?

Thanks
Rob

Something like that belongs under WEB-INF.
