Would the servlet.jar be in the $CATALINA_HOME directory stucture, or does the installer put it elsewhere on the system? I ask because I can't find the servlet.jar in the $CATALINA_HOME directories.(jre/...) and I didn't realize it shipped with tomcat, that is probably my problem.

However, you should not put this servlet.jar in the extensions (jre/lib/ext) directory: that can break other applications, such as tomcat's examples. Instead, put this in another directory that's on your classpath but not on any other application's classpath.
