Hi Michael, This is a Winows thing, rather than a Tomcat thing. Control Panel->Services->Apache Tomcat 4.1->Startup will show you the NT account the service uses to start. By default services use the System account, which IIRC, can't access any network resources such as mapped drives. It may also be unable to access local files if they have restrictive permissions.
When you run Tomcat as a command it will run under your login account.

There's no argument in the tomcat.exe that calls for a username OR password. I'm admin on my own machine. The question is: what about the deployment machine? If it's installed under the admin account, wouldn't it use the System admin username and password? How would that affect looking inside the JARs for the TLD file? I'm not saying you're wrong. I have NO idea why the service would fail and the command line succeed. I'm just trying to understand what's really happening here so I can correct it.
