What is officially supported is documented in section 4 of the RUNNING.txt document:
<http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/RUNNING.txt> or <http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/RUNNING.txt> If you want to deviate from this, I recommend you go ahead and try it. Then post if you run into problems for which you can't find a workaround. It is time consuming to predict what might go wrong based on what you might or might not attempt to do in your actual configuration.
