Hi,

I'm new to axis and web services. I have a question that I think should be
easy to answer.

How can I access a configuration file from a web service? Do they have a
context? something similar to what is available to servlets?

I don't want to hardcode configuration parameters such as which database or
LDAP server to connect to. What's the "web service" way of doing this?

Thanks,
	Chris
