Actually, I just got the first step in security integration for Tomcat in for review from Alan. There is still a long way to go for full Tomcat integration.
Hi Jeff, et al.
I remember your message about security stuff. Would you take down what has been done? I've recently upgraded Tomcat libs to 5.5.4 version, so they may help your work even more. See the revision 106911 for more details. I'm now being taken up with tomcat-builder, so that the silly webapp dir will finally be removed.
On to the question of 'installing Geronimo over one already installed Tomcat' I think it's a matter of specifing correct values CATALINA_HOME, CATALINA_BASE and CATALINA_CONFIG in tomcat-plan.xml and it should work fine. That indeed gives only a possibility to run both in the same JVM, but keep in mind that that's it. No other integration exists yet (no single security layer, no transactions, no common deployment, etc.)
