Hi Dewayne...

Thanks *very* much.

Reguarding the web site, there seem to be three different places where 
there are instructions on Tomcat intergration. There is the page you get 
when you click "jBoss/Tomcat" in the left frame and there is a howto on 
this. These two sources differ in what they say to do and what the 
requirements are.

The third place is in the jBoss 2.0 manual andthat seems to be the same as 
the howto.

So thats why I was confused. Thanks very much for setting me straight.

It seems that the beta PROD-04 has some nice features, like the EAR 
deployer which I'm interested in. So I think I'll take a shot at the CVS 
tree. I did see the info on CVS, but it dossen't seem to say anything about 
tagged beta versions. I'll hunt around and see what I can find, but when I 
last downloaded from CVS (admittedly many, many months ago) there were no 
tagged versions; you had to take the latest. I'm guessing that has changed?

Thanks again!

Jim
