First, find server.xml in Tomcat's conf directory. That is the core of the
server configuration. It'll tell you a number of things, but there are two key
ones:
1) Where Tomcat's base directories are, and hence where the apps are;
2) What connectors are being used to connect Tomcat to IIS at present, and
hence how you'll (probably) want to connect Tomcat to Apache httpd.
It will *not* tell you the hidden stuff the apps rely on. Once you find the
apps, look in each one's WEB-INF and META-INF directories and look for likely
looking configuration files. They may well tell you about things like
datasources for any databases the app uses. However, you can never be entirely
certain you've caught all the references, as I've seen some apps with their own
config files hanging around in some very odd places indeed.
That's a sketch, but if you do the steps above you will gain a much better
understanding of how Tomcat's configuration works and where the apps are on
your system, and will then be able to ask the next set of questions :-).
