Title: Feedback on : Tomcat IIS HowTo

Hello there,

I was able to get my IIS web server to work with Tomcat by following the instructions on:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat/src/doc/tomcat-iis-howto.html

However, I had to perform one extra step before it actually worked.

The problem was:
IIS was trying to download jsp files, instead of executing them!

The solution was (on my PC with NT4.0 sp6 + IIS4):
1. In the Microsoft Management Console, right click 'Default web site'
2. Choose 'properties'
3. Choose the 'Home directory' tab
4. Choose the 'Configuration' button
5. Choose the 'App Mappings' tab
6. Choose the 'Add' button
7. Fill in executable (point to isapi_redirect.dll)
8. Fill in extension (.jsp)
9. Tree times Ok
=> Now IIS recognises the .jsp extension and redirects to Tomcat!


Hope this was usefull in any way,
Keep up the good work!
