Okay, so if we have XWiki running on a dedicated server, and we set user rights'
appropriately, then the SecurityManager probably doesn't add much.
I'm good with that.
No idea what you call location. Location doesn't
matter in general and
By "location" I was referring to what the directory is called that xwiki is
installed into (eg. "xwiki" or "xwikifarm").
you don't even need to be root to install xwiki.
How would this be done? Don't you need root permission to install the WAR into
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps ?
Ah ... I'm guessing you can "deploy" XWiki through Tomcat's management
app? Is this what you mean?
