Enrico,

Sure, my solution was to compile my own Factory for creating the 
InitialDirContext, something like the following and then place it into 
the tomcatX/common/lib directory.

public class MyDirContextFactory
     implements ObjectFactory, InitialContextFactory {

     public Object getObjectInstance(
         Object obj,
         Name name,
         Context nameCtx,
         Hashtable environment)
         throws NamingException {

         Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
         Reference ref = (Reference) obj;
         Enumeration addrs = ref.getAll();
         while (addrs.hasMoreElements()) {
             RefAddr addr = (RefAddr) addrs.nextElement();
             if(!addr.getType().equals("factory"))
                 env.put(addr.getType(), addr.getContent().toString());
         }

         return this.getInitialContext(env);
     }

     /* (non-Javadoc)
      * @see 
javax.naming.spi.InitialContextFactory#getInitialContext(java.util.Hashtable)
      */
     public Context getInitialContext(Hashtable environment)
         throws NamingException {
             return new InitialDirContext(environment);
     }
}

hope this helps,
Mark
