What is Tomcat?
Tomcat is the official reference implementation of the Java Servlet 2.2 and JavaServer Pages 1.1 technologies. Developed under the Apache license in an open and participatory environment, it is intended to be a collaboration of the best-of-breed developers from around the world.
A lot of effort has been put into making Tomcat easy to use as well as flexible. It comes with a default configuration which should be a good starting point for most users. Once you have Tomcat 3.3 up and running, there are many customizations from which you can choose.
To help identify which version of Tomcat you have, a "version" name has been incorporated in a number of places. It is in the name of the binary and source archives as well as the directory to which the archives expand.
will appear in the text below where this "version" name appears. The version will be "3.3" for the initial Tomcat 3.3 release, and "3.3.x" for subsequent maintenance releases.
