Regarding running Tomcat from the startup.bat and shutdown.bat...

This *does* work, but only if JAVA_HOME is pointing to the parent directory
of a JDK, not the parent to a JRE (this seems to contradict both the binary
installer, and the Tomcat 5.x docs which state Tomcat no longer needs a
JDK, just a JRE?)

However, even with this correction to JAVA_HOME, the service.bat still
fails in the same way -- "Failed installing 'Tomcat5' service"

Sorry if you've already said this, but can you get Tomcat to run from a
command prompt rather than as a service?  If so, have you set the account
for the service to one that has at least read access to the JDK as well as
read/write access to the Tomcat installation?
