Firstly you'll need to configure (open some ports) your router to allow direct access to the tomcat port on your machine. Assuming you know the IP address of your router ( type in google: "what's my IP address"), user should be able to connect to your app by typing something like "http://YourRouter's IP:Tomcat Port/your context path"..That should be it.

Hello! I am a new tomcat 5.5 user. I have created some JSPs and they run perfectly in my PC windows xp using tomcat. I want to make my PC a webserver, so that ppl from outside can access my JSPs through tomcat 5.5 running on my system. My PC is connected to a router and my router is connected to a cable modem which has a static ip address from my cable ISP. But after that I don't know what to do further. How should I configure my tomcat, so that ppl from outside can access my JSP website. Thank you Khinan --------------------------------- Low, Low, Low Rates! Check out Yahoo!
