Christopher,

Yes, I know about common and shared directories. I just wanted to have jars
in external directories, but if I have to hand-edit the startup script (catalina.sh),
I prefer copy the jars in the WEB-INF/lib directory.

Anyway Christopher, thanks very much, now I know what I had to do, and maybe
I try editing the script, but later in time.



Thanks very much
