Something like that.

I get the default Tomcat home page, which is at:
    $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.jsp

My impression is that my problem is not whether Tomcat is working.  I
believe it is, even though I tried to shut it up.  My problem is that there
is something in its configuration that is not allowing me access any other
web sites, Google.  When I try to access other sites, all I get is the
default Tomcat home page.  What I want is to be able to access any web
address, in addition to Tomcat's.

I am using Windows XP.

Thanks,
Victor
