FW: good resource for Tomcat startup on Redhat?

[Tom Hickerson]

 
We are installing Tomcat 5.0 on Red Hat Linux and setting up a daemon to run 
Tomcat on startup.  We are running into inexplicable execvp errors, though, and 
wanted to know if there was a good resource or startup script that someone can 
share.
 
Thanks in advance,

install of mod_jk through RPM, no valid checksums?

[Tom Hickerson]

Hi All,
 
We are installing mod_jk 1.2.15 on Fedora Core 2 through RPM, and we keep 
getting a problem with verifying the MD5 checksums:
 
rpm -i --test mod_jk-debuginfo-1.2.15-1jpp.i386.rpm

warning: mod_jk-debuginfo-1.2.15-1jpp.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 
c431416d
 
Does anyone know where we can find a RPM for mod_jk with a valid MD5?
 
Thanks in advance,
Tom Hickerson
