I do not agree with the statement about it being a "sad tone". 95% of our shop is .NET / IIS / MSSQL, however we are intergrating another product into our applications that is written in Java and requires a J2EE compliant application server to run, thus here I am :). I understand the thoughts and practices of streamlining the technologies in your shop but being too strict about it also limits your options. There is valid consideration that needs to be made to the best tool for the job as well. We spent about 6 months evaluating a variety of tools and in this case, the ones that were .NET based fell very short of the product we ended up choosing.

There is a very good article that explains the technical reasons http://people.apache.org/~mturk/docs/article/ftwai.html Also, there might be cases where the reasons are political, or when the environment is very heterogenous, or combinations of the two. (The last sentence should be read with a sad tone) Hope it helps, b. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jacob Rhoden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <users@tomcat.apache.org> Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2007 12:38 AM Subject: Re: Help with Tomcat & IIS > Wow, this is the first time I have heard of someone wanting to use > Tomcat with IIS.
