• The server is now set up for working with Tomcat 5. Not many changes have occurred in this codebase. However, we are working on an entirely new version of the environment that uses Struts that has many many changes and additions. Stay tuned!

  If you want to run this version of the server on Tomcat 4 you will need to deploy it, and then edit the webapps/biocore/WEB-INF/web.xml and comment out the invoker servlet declaration (search for Tomcat). We recommend, however, that you look at our upgrade guide for upgrading from Tomcat 4 to Tomcat 5 as Tomcat 5 will be needed to take advantage of the changes in the new version of the server.

• Added an option to the AdminServlet to allow administrators to specify a port range that they wish to use for receiving Listener (such as the Control Panel) connections. This should help in cases where the server is running behind a firewall.
