Thanks again to Subhrajyoti for the help.
For Jakarta-tomcat 3.1 & JetSpeed-1.1 (under WinNT), this is what it looks
like:

the default is x:\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\ROOT\content
otherwise you have to know how to create aliases for directories in your web
server.

looks like the consensus on this is "yes".

Subhra is right on this one. The absolute path is
x:\jakarta-tomcat\conf\WEB-INF\web.xml, and I just cut and pasted the
example from the bottom of the installation page in there and changed it
slightly to make it OK for winNT:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>jetspeed</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>Turbine</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>properties</param-name>
<param-value>
<!-- /projects/jetspeed/src/TurbineResources.properties (this is for
unix) -->
x:\Jetspeed-1.1\src\config\TurbineResources.properties <!-- this is for
NT -->
</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
all you have to do is paste that right at the top under the <web-app> tag.

Turns out this is Turbine (thanks to the list for helping me with this one).

I did nothing at all to these files and I'm up and running (finally!). I'd
still like to know what has to match up, if anyone knows where there's a FAQ
on it I won't waste everyone's time with stuff only I don't know.
Thanks to everyone who helped me get this thing running.
