Interestingly Firefox does not understand start (*) in bypass proxy "No Proxy for:" textbox. Somewhere I came to know the notation which works fine for FIREFOX! its not a great discovery and there is an example given below "No Proxy For:" 192.168.1.0/24 However sooo many pepole don't know what is the meaning of 192.168.1.0/24. So this how we can utilize that - 1. 101.222.*.* - means first two fields are fixed. 2 (First 2 fixed fields) x 8 = 16. So you can use 101.222.0.0/16 instead of 101.222.*.* 102.*.*.* - means first field is fixed. 1(First fixed field) x 8 = 8. You can use 102.0.0.0/8 instead of 102.*.*.* Simple! It just works Cheers,

Setting autoDeploy and unpackWARS to false as we are not deploying and updating web applications dynamically. We are also not using the default Tomcat applications like Tomcat Manager for dynamically web application deployment. Changes ...
