Yes, I mean the security stuff and resource protection in Tomcat, the funy

file, i can see it, thats while I send my comment to FOP list.

Any way, i have a work around to this, i made another tomcat context with
out security, only with the ServletReport, and using
response.sendRedirect("myReportContext/myServletReport + parameters") from
my protected servlet and work fine.

But if any body know want to try, and found why this happend, i be happy if
let me know why.

Greetings
