Since you have Apache 2 up and running I would suggest getting rid of the
Tomcat 3.3 and point your JK connector to a Apache 4 install.  you can
download the binaries directly from jakarat and they will work out of the
box.

While HP-UX does have its inherent problems, if you have a machine or two
you really should not let them out of your sight, especially at ASU since U
of A gets all the good stuff.

As with every platform you always need to ensure you are up to date on
patches and JVM's.  www.hp.com/go/java will have patch information and
kernel settings.

I have had Linux and Windows machines spin out of control just as often as
HP-UX boxes.

Guess I should hold out for the Solaris box that's supposed to be coming my
way... it's currently serving time as a firewall, but we're getting an
appliance for that and then it'll be out of a job.

There's really no resistance here to whatever I ask for, as long as it's
reasonable.  We have another HP-UX box I could use for development-- so far
it's just been easier to use my desktop which happens to be running Win2k.
At home, it's Redhat 7.3, and I've been able to move things back and forth
with no problems.

I'm the only Java programmer in the department, and I've been left
blissfully alone to play with all the new toys you guys at Jakarta have been
producing.  (I don't know if this would have happened anywhere but in
academia, but they seem content to let me experiment and see what comes of
it.  Even when the Applet Experiment proved to be a dismal failure...)

Thanks for your help and advice!  I really don't want to get into building
Apache and Tomcat myself-- I have enough to worry about getting my own stuff
to compile and run. :)
