DTD's (or XML-Schemas) are great.

they will tell you all options you have inside a XML file.
Where to know from which elements are allowed inside a XML file? DTD tells
you this.
If you create a server.xml any parser can check your file if it is not only
wellformed, you will know if it is valid and this is great. This makes it
much easier for you writing server.xml files. Then you know if Tomcat is
producing an error reading your config or you had an error inside your
elements.

And... xml files are not really useful without DTD's .. that's what I think.

why do you require DTD. To check whether it is a validate documet. it is ,u
dont have to worry much. One more thing it. If it is a XML file. You dont
neccesarily require a DTD.

Nope,

in the /conf folder, this is the web.dtd for validating web.xml
configuration files.
TomCat is not coming with a server.dtd, at least slocate was not finding
anything ;)

I'm searching for the server.dtd as well. It's not specified in the Java
Servlet Standard. So it must be something Tomcat specific.
