It is basically a warning in every document that deals with deployment, wotaskd or JavaMonitor.

Hey Frank!
Yeah, what I was after was an actual link to where you were reading... Google seems to have pointed me to one instance. Sure hope it's where you were looking. :-(
Specifically, it says: On password-protected sites, you have to use JavaMonitor to view an application host’s configuration.
And while this is true for accessing the full information about the configuration, it's not true about all of it. As I recall, with a password set, you can still see the configuration information if you use the URL as it appears on the WOAdaptorInfo page. After all, that's how the WOAdaptor is getting the information. It should be something like this and yes, you need to use the entire url to gain access when the password is set:
appserver.mydomain.ca:1085/WebObjects/wotaskd.woa/wa/woconfig
For what should be obvious reasons, you must do this from a machine which can connect to the app server. One that is not blocked by say a firewall as is so common in a deployment situation. When I taught the deployment course I used to cover this part in extra detail because it's so useful when there are deployment problems. __ Mark Ritchie Cocoa and WebObjects Developer Diamond Lake Consulting Inc.
