Hi there,

It worked :-)

/conf/server.xml:

...
<Engine defaultHost="localhost" name="Catalina">
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"/>
<Host appBase="webapps" name="localhost"/>
<Host appBase="webapps/myName" name="myName.server.com"/>
</Engine>
...

And within /conf/Catalina/myName.server.com/ROOT.xml

<Context path="" docBase="/path/to/some.war" debug="0">
  <Resource ... />
  <Manager ... />
</Context>

Thanks again & best regards
Detlev
