This is not a question, but rather an answer. After about three hours of work this morning, I found out why my tomcat configuration (which worked fine on my Solaris development server) was not working under redhat linux 7.2.
I use Tomcat with mysql and jdbc to do both authentication, and serve up the data of my site. The issue apparently has to do with how redhat configures mysql. A user must be configured in the mysql grant tables as [EMAIL PROTECTED] - NOT just as user@localhost. Then, the normal mm.mysql driver, jdbc syntax works to connect to it just fine. Note that the jdbc syntax doesn't have to include the "localdomain", only the mysql grant table. Without that "localdomain" in the mysql grant table, the connection is always refused.
