Thanks for the suggestions. Here is how I started Tomcat.
[eas@plutus easMail]$ CATALINA_HOME=$TOMCAT_HOME startup.sh
Using CLASSPATH:
/home/src/Java/jakarta/dist/tomcat-4.0/bin/bootstrap.jar:/home/src/Java/jakarta/dist/tomcat-4.0/bin/servlet.jar:/home/src/Java/jakarta/dist/tomcat-4.0/bin/naming.jar:/usr/Java/jdk/lib/tools.jar
Using CATALINA_HOME: /home/src/Java/jakarta/dist/tomcat-4.0
Here are the first few lines of my web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<resource-env-ref>
<resource-env-ref-name>ssl/factory</resource-env-ref-name>
<resource-env-ref-type>javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory</resource-env-ref-type>
</resource-env-ref>
<servlet> <!-- line 12 -->
<servlet-name>easMail</servlet-name>
And Here are the appropriate lines from the localhost log.
2001-01-03 15:55:36 ContextConfig[/easMail] Parse error in application web.xml
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Element "web-app" does not allow "servlet" here.

2001-01-03 15:55:36 ContextConfig[/easMail]: Occurred at line 12 column -1
I may be reading the DTD wrong, but my xemacs thinks I can have a
servlet there, and from my reading of the DTD I do to. Can you give me
a clue?
Thanks
