[Jetty-support] Re: Error 404 showing too much

[Greg W. <gr...@mo...>]

Now we wouldn't be trying to get security by obscurity now would we :-)

As Chris and Joe have said, you simple need to register a context at /
Simplest thing to do is to create an empty directory called 'root'
in the webapps directory.  This will create a / context and 404 every
request to it.

cheers
