Definitely. I had it set up once before, primarily using Jetty but also had a test Tomcat. This was on Apache Gump's old machine brutus.apache.org where i hit FOR-422 - perhaps we would also see that on the Solaris of our zone machine. Lets see. There is one problem when using both cronjobs and the webapp interface. I had to add some code to the UNIX shell script that invokes forrestbot so that it didn't try to start a build if it was already running. There is discussion in the archives about that and i think that i still have the old config from brutus. > I think we should use it on our zone.

We already need to do a manual start of Apache HTTP Server after reboot, so one more won't hurt. Of course we need to fix it all properly.
