Symlink Problem after setting resources tag allowLinking="true"

[Don Ross <dr...@hotmail.com>]

After looking through the mail archives and following the examples of
enabling symbolic links, I am still unable to get it to work.

Added following context to default server.xml following the definition of 
examples context.

<Context path="/served" docBase="served" debug="0" reloadable="true">
       <Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext"
               allowLinking="true" caseSensitive="false" />
       <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
               prefix="localhost_served_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
</Context>

I'm running Tomcat 4.1.18 on RedHat Linux 7.2.

Have also tried setting docBase="" in the Resources tag, but didn't
help.

I have a symbolic link "jsp" under my webapps/served/ directory that links 
to a directory outside of Tomcat directory structure.

After restarting tomcat still get 404 error when trying to access files in 
this directory.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Don
