I usually ignore suggestions to drop jar files into the ext directory -- invariably, you end up with applications needing different versions of XML parser jars and the like. Those conflicts can be pretty hard to figure out because there is no convention to put a version number in the jar file name. It's the Java version of DLL hell. Just adding these jars to a "local" classpath that gets set in the startup script for each application has worked well for me. It also makes it a lot easier to change JVMs. Omer -- redhat-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
