Why does Tomcat need network connectivity on startup. Can't I use it on a
machine that is not connected on the network (localhost)?

I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like I saw something once implying
some OS's (I'm thinking MS) disable the localhost when there's no active
network interface. Don't think there's any reason why tomcat should be
prevented from binding to localhost if it's available.

It doesn't need network connectivity (at least not as far as i know). Most
developers use it within a localhost setting. If you're on windows and
you're getting a prompt about a process wanting to open a port, that is just
a network security issue, it doesn't mean tomcat requires internet access.

By default Tomcat doesn't bind to localhost, it uses 0.0.0.0 - all IP
addresses
