André's advice sounded good, but I'd basically already done this using the Synapic Package Manager, and it didn't help. So I decided, foolishly, to take it one step farther. I removed, and purged, then searched the system for anything Tomcat related, and deleted that stuff too. Then when I reinstalled, Tomcat didn't get reinstalled under /etc nor /etc/init.d, and it didn't get started automatically as it had before. So is there some way to auto-recreate those magic startup scripts? I know I could just start it manually, or create the scripts myself, but they used to be there before I stupidly removed them. How do I get them back? Sad, tired, and frustrated. I'm going home. :( Michael
