Actually, it's the same tool both times. The CF installer invokes wsconfig, and you can invoke it manually. Permissions on Unix/Linux/OS X can be problematic. In any case, what I like to do is run the initial installer without configuring any web server other than the built-in JRun web server, then run wsconfig after the fact. This lets me use both the JRun web server and an external web server, which can have some advantages.
