Neal, Just use the ".sh" counterparts to the ".bat" files you used on Windows.
If you want Tomcat to start when the system comes up (or, to use some jargon, enters the proper "run level") you should find someone at your site who's familiar with Linux configuration. This can be handled manually, by editing startup and shutdown files in /etc/rc.d or, on many modern Linux systems, by using a GUI front-end to those configuration files. However, there are several variants on the underlying scheme and the tools that expose it, so it's not feasible to instruct you on the details from what you've told us (i.e., simply that you're using Linux). Good luck. Randall Schulz Mountain View, CA USA At 22:04 2002-08-25, neal wrote: >How do you start and shutdown Tomcat on Linux? > >I'm (obvioulsy) a windows person.
