He said he had a hardware load balancer so the tomcat one is irrelevant.

The main doc on the jakarta site is 
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/cluster-howto.html, which explains 
what the clustering does but not much details about getting it working.

To get the basic cluster working all you need to do is to uncomment the cluster 
section in your server.xml. The comments in there should give you some hints.

Have a play around and ask any specific questions here and there are quite a few 
people who will be able to help.

I take it you've read this:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/balancer-howto.html

Also...
It's been posted on this list recently that the source to the balancer
app is pretty straight forward and easy to read.
