This is probably great advice for a newbie, although I can't say for 
sure as I haven't checked the Web Services pack out yet and couldn't 
evaluate it. To clarify, jdk1.3.1 does work with tomcat 4.x (or at least 
it does so far), however I'm not sure if you need jdk1.4 for the web 
services pack. I'm curious as to whether most people go with tomcat as 
part of a bundled package (either with Sun Forte or with Sun Web 
Services Dev Pack), or if they get it seperately from Apache Jakarta. 
I've always gone for getting it seperately, because I know what version 
I'm getting, I'm not worried about it being scaled down or having a 
different configuration system, and I know how to upgrade. But I 
certainly can see the advantages of a bundled system for somebody who's 
learning. Does anybody use a bundled system elsewhere as well?
