Tcepsa's Thoughts

Anyone out there interested in helping me understand the guts of a Tomcat 5.5 server configuration? (Doing some work on a project that requires some tweaking, and for which all the how-tos are written for Apache and are scary to me. More detail: Trying to implement a web-based chat client using JWChat and ejabberd, and it involves some bizarre level of redirection in which requests to a certain URL are somehow sent to the ejabberd server instead--I think!)

Even something as simple as a basic "Here's what the config files are. Here's what the settings tend to mean" or something might at least help me start figuring out which way is up!
