Hi, I'm using the tomcat-dist. Well, using might a bit strong, at least I installed it sucessfully on Debian PowerPC and i386, stable.
Pitfalls were the JREs, which in both cases have not been readily available (at least JDK 1.2, which tomcat requires) as a .deb. But - as most of my postings on this list show - as inexperienced as I am, I was nevertheless able to get it working. Most of the work I've done was on i386 - it had reasonable performance and after setting up the environment no major breakdowns. I didn't yet configure tomcat to work w/ apache, but from a glace at the docs it shouldn't cause you many headaches. Basically I'd like to share experience so maybe you could sustain posting anything you might consider worth sharing. Olaf
