Hi, Chuck. Thanks; that sounds like exactly the solution I should have thought of, myself. :-)
In terms of the reinstall, is there a way to see what settings were applied when the services were installed, originally? Not all of the Tomcats on the server "belong" to me, some of them came with a third party utility whose documentation has long since vanished into the ether. Thanks for the help!
