Thanks for the response Chuck.
I took a look at the tomcat process on my box and it has this:
sockname: AF_INET6 ::ffff:127.0.0.1 port: 8080
Basically, its localhost.
I can't telnet or ping. Our ISP sysadmin disabled those on the firewall.
Someone else said I need to bind it to the ipaddr of the box (OpenSolaris btw),
but I'm not sure how to do that.

No configuration necessary - unless you changed something in server.xml, To=
mcat binds to 0.0.0.0, so it listens on all IP addresses configured for the=
box it's running on. There very likely *is* a firewall blocking port 8080=
somewhere between your browser and the Tomcat system - it might even be on=
your XP box at home.
Can you reach the target system with a ping?
