I just changed JPDA_ADRESS to 127.0.0.1:8787 in ${catalina_home}/bin/jpda.sh, and it works. Unfortunately, I can't switch to JDK 6 since it's a production-environment - maybe somebody else can confirm / decline this behaviour for JDK 6. Quick summary of what to do to remote-debug safely (provided you're running Tomcat 5 on Linux): - make sure you've got an SSH-demon running - change JPDA_ADRESS to 127.0.0.1:8787 in ${catalina_home}/bin/jpda.sh - start tomcat via ${catalina_home}/bin/jpda.sh then - get a copy of putty for your client (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/) - create a tunnel for your ssh-connection and forward your JPDA-port (usually 8787) - open an ssh-connection to your server with putty - you can then connect to 127.0.0.1:${JPDA_PORT}, the request will be forwared to your JPDA-port via an SSH-tunnel on your server and debug happily on your client Cheers & thanks to Chuck!
