default page

[Chris Huisman <ch...@matrikon.com>]

I would like to have the login page of my webapp show up when the user
enters the url http://localhost (or whatever the machine name is).  I would
also like the login page to appear when the user types in
http://localhost/web-app-name .  I am able to do this using Tomcat 3.1, but
I need to do it in 3.2 as well.

Any suggestions would be helpful.  

Thank you

in server.xml (conf directory)
add your context as the root context

	  <Context path="/"
                 docBase="webapps/yourcontext"
                 crossContext="false"
                 debug="0"
                 reloadable="true" >
        </Context>
