If you leave the virtual directory out, then you will not be able to take
advantage of IIS's security features such as fetching the user's NT
username(if only that is within the firewall).   If security is not
required, then why bother using IIS?

Subject: Using Tomcat on top of IIS 4.0


To whom it may concern

I have recently implemented your solution for using Tomcat and IIS 4.0
together. In your on-line
documentation for this solution, one of the steps is to create a virtual
directory in IIS called
"jakarta" which points to the directory containing the isapi_redirector.dll
file. I do not see the
relevance of this step, and I would like to know for sure if I can leave it
out.

Could you please clear this up for me.

Regards
Ryan
