How do I redirect? Shall I open the Apache2(httpd) service as well as
start the Tomcat server?

As it is now 
-I see the httpd welcome page when I browse http://87.227.4.194 with
the 
httpd service running and have this router setting enabled:

Name         Private IP     Protocol      Schedule
87.227.4.194 192.168.0.135  TCP 80/80     always

or

-I see the tomcat welcome page when I browse http://87.227.4.194:8080
with the httpd service stopped and have this router setting enabled:

Name         Private IP     Protocol      Schedule
87.227.4.194 192.168.0.135  TCP 8080/8080 always

My goal is for everybody to see the tomcat welcome page when browsing
http://87.227.4.194
87.227.4.194 is linked to a domain I own (elvberg.com). Try
www.elvberg.com:8080 and www.elvberg.com and you shall see...

I 'll keep the alternative
Name         Private IP     Protocol      Schedule
87.227.4.194 192.168.0.135  TCP 8080/8080 always
for a while so you and others can try for yourselves (httpd is off and
tomcat is on)
