Hi Everybody,

Now I will show my real ignorance about what I know after NOT working with 
Apache or Tomcat for several years now.  I have been working on a project that 
allows our CGI web pages to authenticate users from their windows desktop 
against Windows AD and not requiring any kind of unix account.  I am slowly 
getting the information I need to move forward but information is just not out 
there to get.  I am just chipping away at it.

My basic question is: do I need to install apache as well as tomcat to have an 
httpd.conf file?  I have tomcat running on several AIX servers, 6.1 and 5.3, 
with tomcat 7.0.27 installed.  I was doing a simple search to find the 
httpd.conf file when I realized none of my servers have it installed.  When I 
try to find out which app creates it I get the answer apache (from google 
searches).  So I guess that tomcat is a subset of apache?  A virtual java app I 
suppose?  See I told you the questions were basic.  Yikes it is hard to 
understand as a newbie, especially when I can load tomcat and get web pages 
working in a few minutes.  LOL

Any help is appreciated in regard to helping me wrap my brain around this.  ARGH

Regards,
Jen
