Re: JDNI factory name

Doesn't java:comp/env refer to the current application's environment, as
opposed to a global reference? This would be specific to application
unless the app server itself returns the same reference for multiple
applications. Why couldn't you use both processes - look for it in the
filter attributes, then environment (i.e., env-entry), then JNDI.

For that matter, would it be possible to use a JMX MBean to control
sitemesh?
