Two days ago, I installed JDK 1.3.0_02.  Yesterday I installed Tomcat 3.2.1.

I tried JSPs and they failed.  I found a Tomcat FAQ that suggested I needed 
to add tools.jar to my CLASSPATH.

So, I added

JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar

But that didn't work.

Investigation on my machine shows that

JAVA_HOME points to /usr/java/jdk1.3.0_02/jre

there are lots of jar files in $JAVA_HOME/lib such as rt.jar

But there are also several jar files in

/usr/java/jdk1.3.0_02/lib such as tools.jar

So,

1.  What should JAVA_HOME be set to?
2.  What is tools.jar?
3.  Why the two different lib directories?

4.  Is there a FAQ for this mailing list (I'd hate to
     repeat questions that have already been answered.)

Thank you,

Jerry Asher
