When you install MT 7.1 and let it install Tomcat standalone, you have
a:
<Tomcat_base_folder>/webapps/ROOT folder.  In that folder lies the
default index.html page, which is the one that is shown when browsing to
http://<servername>.  BTW, the default index.html page for Tomcat
bundled with MidTier is a page that simply states "Tomcat is
running...".

Simply rename this file (e.g. index.html.orig), then create a new
index.html file and insert the following:

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;URL=http://<WebServerName>:<port>/<ContextPath>/forms/<ARServ
erName>/<FormName>">
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

In my case, for the URL I put http://<webservername>/arsys/home.

Ben,

Try this link from Tomcat Wiki.  You didn't state which webserver you
plan to use.  In apache, just replace the default index.htm* with the
same snippet shown here, it works just as good.

http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo#head-e82228c43a0ce77f71ebe64fc99ced3

At any rate, it's a starting place.  Your mileage will vary...
