Sounds good to me! Usually when we move Tomcat to a new Windows machine, we just use that same executable zip (jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27.exe) to install Tomcat on the new machine, and then copy over our directories from the original machine to replace the Tomcat directory that got created. I know this might be a really dumb question, but will that .exe file run and install everything on the Linux box, or will I have to use jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27.zip and extract everything? It's all slowly and hazily making sense...I hope...on Red Hat I won't have to "install" it quite as "much" as Windows which needs to put things into the registries, etc, right? So I just extract it and put some kind of symbolic link to the Tomcat executable in usr/local/bin or something like that, huh? But will that be enough to mimic the functionality we usually have, since typically on Windows we run it as a service? Sorry for my rambling...

Howdy,
Tomcat is written in Java and is OS independent, you don't need a linux specific install.
We have the same Tomcat install running on Solaris, Linux, and Windoze.

We're moving Tomcat over to a Linux box, and we're under pressure to get it done as quickly as possible and put it into production right away even though none of us knows Linux all that well beyond me using Solaris back in my school days! So, I'm looking for Tomcat 4.1.27 for Linux, and I don't see that available here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi
However, in searching around, I found this, and I'm wondering if this is the right thing for me to be using:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/suse/9.0/i386/suse/i586/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.27-63.i586.html
I've heard about RPM only in the last day or so when looking around for utilities for Linux. I'll probably want the RPM version for Tomcat, right? This page talks about RPM:
http://www.rpm.org/
But I'm wondering if it comes with Red Hat 8 (I can't tell yet--my boss
is installing Red Hat across town and I'm just doing my homework so I'm
ready to roll when he's done with all the things he has to do on his
end).
Thanks, Stephen
