The challenge is that like someone mentioned earlier, they are only providing bea and ibm 1.4.x JVM's via that channel. I'm not convinced you'll see Suns JVM there until the whole thing rolls over to Java 1.5, sun didn't relicense 1.4.x they only relicensed 1.5.x... :-( ---- Note, you can go the free route too... Most of the Application Stack stuff is actually based on this Opensource project to provide RPM based installation of most Java packages... http://www.jpackage.org/ they support * fedora-4 * fedora-5 * fedora-6 * mandrake-10.1 * redhat-el-4.0 * solaris * suse-es-9.0 For the most part the Redhat/Fedora java solution is based on JPackage (you'll see "jpp" in package names and RPM specs)... JPackage integrates nicely with Yum/RHN and you can subscribe to their update channels as easily at Redhats...JPackage allows you to select from a number of available JVM's and repackages Suns JVM using SRPM so it is installed in a more LSB and JPackage friendly way. So the big question is, pay for Redhat to give you a stack that they've spent alot of time vetting, download the stuff yourself and roll your own at your own risk, or take an intermediary path (JPackage) that gives you about 90% of the updates you'd get from RHN for free but a possibly a little less vetted. So, if your looking for mod_jk as an RPM, heres more than likely it origin: http://www.jpackage.org/browser/rpm.php?jppversion=1.6&id=1165 Installing Apache/Tomcat on Fedora via Yum http://www.artima.com/forums/flat.jsp?forum=121&thread=191571 More specifically, > > Since I don't want my users to have to type ":8080" all the time, I > went ahead and hooked up Tomcat 5 to httpd.
