The Apache JServ Status is a collection of dynamically generated web pages that allow the administrator to have a direct idea of the status of the system, on both the mod_jserv module and on each connected servlet engine.
These pages give you the ability to check existing configurations remotely and control the correct servlet engine behavior from a centralized information system.
Warning: even if the status pages are enabled in the sample configuration files shipped with the distribution, you are strongly encouraged to deny the access to this location on a production environment since this may give untrusted users the ability to gather important system security information.
The above directives map the Apache JServ status pages (SetHandler jserv-status) to the URI /status/jserv/ (<location /status/jserv/>) allowing the access only from requests coming from the "dummy.org" domain.<Location /status/jserv/> SetHandler jserv-status order deny,allow deny from all allow from dummy.org </Location>
For more complex examples and documentation on how to restrict access to a particular URI see the web server documents.
