I am having very good results with the Tomcat server from the Jakarta
project (jakarta.apache.org). I am using this for development on a WinNT
machine, and the installation was painless. I put the servlet.jar and
jasper.jar files in my CLASSPATH, so my compiler can find the necessary
imports (I'm not really sure why jasper.jar is in the CLASSPATH, but there
it is...it may have been a trial and error kind of thingy...8-). I am using
this environment for development, but it is fully functional; I believe it
will work with JDK 1.2.2, but I'm using 1.3 (which you can also download
from Sun).
Hope this helps.
