Hello Erwin,
I'd like to suggest to use NT family windows for tomcat, then it would
be the easest way - tomcat will find all that he needs by himself. And
then if you'd like to help him you may set tomcat_home.
Else that is spare:

minimal configuration in autoxec.bat is:
SET JAVA_HOME=C:\path\to
SET TOMCAT_HOME=C:\path\to
SET CLASSPATH=.;%JAVA_HOME%\JRE\LIB\RT.JAR
SET PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\BIN
and then restart windows - and test whether those evironemnt variables
was set correctly.
and then look through tomcat.bat - and make by yourself mystartup.bat
and myshutdown.bat - because i'm sure win9x can't work correctly with
environmnet variables - but tomcat batch files depend on it verymuch.
Comments:
be attentive with CLASSPATH! there must be a "." anywhere
among ";". It means current dir.
be sure that there no whitespaces in your pathes - java doesn't like
it.
