Posting off-list. If you need a quick solution for a server with apache
and tomcat, have a look at our StartCom Linux AS-5. Installing and
configuring the basic modes is fairly easy. Make sure to include httpd
and tomcat5 during initial install. Afterwards check if you need
additional mod_* packages for apache or oder stuff...
