It works perfectly fine with Tomcat 4. I'm trying to get it to work on Tomcat 5, but Tomcat 5 doesn't allow it to write to any path outside the application path. I've read the Security Manager Howto, but can't figure out how to get it to work. Can someone please clue me in? Thanks, Johnny --=_alternative 004DA2BB85257169_=--
