Yep, just stopping one service and starting the other.  It's something weird 
with the server, since an identical Tomcat 6 install wouldn't work with a 
copied and stripped configuration.  I'm double-checking everything, but I think 
the server's tied the outside IP to the wrong internal IP.  Trying to come up 
with a way to check that.
Note, the connectors and hosts my original posted server.xml are taken from my 
original install, but that also has another pair of connectors (different IPv4 
address) and some hosts that should only respond on that address, though they 
are all under one service/engine combo.  The troublesome address connectors and 
hosts are commented out in the original and the original restarted before I try 
to start the newer setups.
