configuring hosts in server.xml

[Nadia Kunkov <na...@parkerglobal.com>]

HI,
I'd like to run two websites ( one straight HTML the other JSP and servlets ) on one Linux server that is running Tomcat 5.  I don't have apache to use it's virtual hosts. On my DNS server I set up two domain names corresponding to the same IP address. 
Tomcat documentation says I need to configure server.xml to have multiple hosts with their own sets of webapps.  As I understand each host will have it's own appbase different from one another.  Now I need to setup a default html or jsp page.  Under webapps/ROOT there is index.jsp.  Am I right thinking that for my new hosts under /newwebapps/ROOT I need to set up either index.jsp or index.html to be redirected to my websites?  How does tomcat picks up a default page? Also, do I need to use Host Name aliase?  

Thanks as always for your help

N.K.
