Thank you for the answer, but I think it is not a network problem:
"nslookup epigonesrv11" answers correctly on my computer:
Nom : epigonesrv11.epigonedom.dom
Address: 192.168.0.6
"ping epigonesrv11" answers also correctly (with some french in it):

But "telnet epigonesrv11 8080" answers that connection on port 8080 is
impossible:
Connexion à epigonesrv11...Impossible d'ouvrir une connexion à l'hôte, sur le
port 8080: Échec lors de la connexion
As I explained anyway, all the firewalls are inactive, AND I can establish a
connection with Tomcat 5.5.17 BUT not with Tomcat 5.5.29.
All my installs are the simplest ever (always "next" in .exe installer; only
unzip and launch startup.bat with zip distrib). I tried the windows .exe
installers of Tomcat 5.5.17 and Tomcat 5.5.29, and the zip distributions of
Tomcat 5.5.17 and Tomcat 5.5.29, and:
- my computer contacts Tomcat 5.5.17 on port 8080 (either when installed by a
zip or an exe)
- my computer does not contact Tomcat 5.5.29 on port 8080
- Tomcat 5.5.29 is running, since it is accessible from the local server (I log
on the server, and call http://localhost:8080, and I get the admin console)

This :

That would tend to indicate that you have a problem which has nothing to do
with Tomcat, but has to do with either
- the DNS (name resolving of "myServer" does not give the IP address of your
host)
OR
- something is blocking remote access to your host on port 8080
and this :
> - I tried to install Tomcat 5.5.17 instead of Tomcat 5.5.29, and it worked !!
> ie. the URLs http://myServer:8080/, http://myServer:8080/admin, etc... DO

contradicts the above.
There is a puzzle there..
To find out if there is a problem with name resolution, do this :
on the same workstation where you tried the telnet command, enter
nslookup myServer
it should tell you the IP address of that host. If it does not, you have a DNS
issue.
To find out if there is a general network issue between the workstation and the
server, do
ping myServer
In general however, instead of saying "it did not work", try to be a bit more
specific. What exactly happens when you do
telnet myServer 8080
Don't be afraid to paste the original error message here, we're polyglots. We
even have mind-readers, but they appear to be on vacation right now.
