I would back up your webapps, if they are under the tomcat base, and save copies of your *.xml files.
Then download the binaries from here: http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.4/bin/ The binary install is very straightforward, and as far as I know, there is nothing that an RPM would be doing that wouldn't be accomplished by just downloading the binary. The only thing I do to install tomcat from the binary is extract the archive, make sure CATALINA_HOME is set, and start it up. Piece of cake. Obviously, you will need to modify your server.xml as needed and move your webapps into the tree, if that's where you want them, but other than that, the binary install should be painless.

I used the rpms to install tomcat 4.0.2, but they do not exist for tomcat4.0.4. Is there an easy way to upgrade to 4.0.4? ( just copy specific files to the old Tomcat4 location?) Should I remove the 4.0.2 rpms, before I try to install the binary version of 4.0.4? Any Help is greatly Appreciated.
