Hi

I have an application where a client transmits data to a servlet by opening a URLConnection to the servlet and writing the data to the outputStream as a POST request which the servlet processes by reading the HttpServletRequest inputStream. What can I do to protect my servlet against a rogue client that opens the outputStream and trying to write multi-gigabytes of data and running the server out of memory or does Tomcat already have mechanisms in place to prevent this.

Regards
Roger
