Ok. I changed the following in C:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\conf\server.xml

Changed this:
<Host name="localhost"  appBase="webapps"

To this:
<Host name="localhost"  appBase="E:\Public\Files\My Docs\Web\Sites"

Inside the the directory on the E: drive is a copy of the default Tomcat
index.html file for testing purposes. After restarting Tomcat nothing
happens.

Here's a link to a screenshot of Firefox and IE. One working with default
configuration and one when I make the change.

Is there other conf file I need to change?
