Few things you need to keep in mind if you do decide to migrate from IIS to Tomcat. 1) With Tomcat, you will not be able to serve .asp pages. You will need to convert them to jsps. 2) Frontpage cannot connect to Tomcat as IIS does. But you will be able to use the editing capabilities of FrontPage. You could still edit HTML pages. 3) Although Tomcat could be used standalone, it would be a good idea to use Apache as a webserver to serve static pages (using mod_jk), and let Tomcat handle the dynamic (jsp) pages. mod_jk has load-balancing capabilities as well. 4) Or you could still use IIS as the webserver (this way you don't loose the asp functionality). And let Tomcat handle the jsps (and servlet). You could an ISAPI dll to connect IIS and Tomcat. See http://jakarta.tomcat.org for more details

We do have a web editor called FrontPage to edit our web sites from Microsoft. Is it possible to use Tomcat as a replacement for IIS and still use FrontPage on editing our website. Is it then possible to use FrontPage with tomcat or do we have to also find other means for compatibility. Appreciate your cooperation.
