What's the best way to acknowledge the contributions of others as I'd like to add some thanks to Kris Easter, Michel Prunet and Stephen More. This discussion area? In brackets after the article link from Java Project Roadmap ? Darren 08:58, 27 October 2006 (EDT)

UNIX Permissions

> Change files in CATALINA_HOME/conf to be readonly (440)

Initially these are 600 (except for tomcat-users.xml which is 644 and Tomcat keeps it that way). Is there a need to make them group-readable?

> Make sure tomcat user has ... write (220 - yes, only write) access to CATALINA_HOME/logs

This doesn't work. I think the best that can be done here is 750 or 700.

CATALINA_HOME/conf files updated to recommend chmod 400. tomcat-user.xml the same as tomcat doesn't write to it. Original file permissions for all these conf files were 600 when 5.5.20 was unpacked on a debian box.

CATALINA_HOME/logs directory updated to recommend chmod 300. Prevents tomcat user reading the logs within, but writing works fine for me - again after 5.5.20 was unpacked on a debian box.
