tomcat 6.0.32 centos 5.5 manager access - newbie

Apache Tomcat 6.0.32.0
Centos 5.5

I am a newbie to tomcat need some step by step guidance on how access & how
to deploy a war in tomcat 6.
In early version of 5.5.30 to access the management console & deply a war I
had to do the below:
Modify tomcat-users.xml
add the roles and user access like this

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
  <role rolename="manager"/>
  <role rolename="tomcat"/>
  <role rolename="admin"/>
  <role rolename="role1"/>
  <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>
  <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
  <user username="admin" password="123456" roles="admin,manager"/>
  <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
</tomcat-users>

then hit 
http://localhost:8080
click on the tomcat administration 
provide access login & password

then go to browse locate the war file and click on deploy.
========================================================================
Now I had downloaded tomcat 6.0.32 and I am confused after startup.sh when I
hit
Modified tomcat-users.xml as

<!--
  <role rolename="tomcat"/>
  <role rolename="role1"/>
  <role rolename="manager"/>
  <role rolename="manager-gui"/>
  <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>
  <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
  <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
  <user username="tomcatadmin" password="secret123"
roles="manager,manager-gui"/>
-->
</tomcat-users>

http://localhost:8080

I am not able to find the administration but only status and manager
When I click on the manager with the given login from tomcat-users.xml then
its not allowing me

What to do or what am I missing pl?

Your <role> and <user> elements are commented-out.

If you read the tomcat-users.xml file carefully, you'll see this comment
just inside the <tomcat-users> section:

<!--
  NOTE:  The sample user and role entries below are wrapped in a comment
  and thus are ignored when reading this file. Do not forget to remove
  <!.. ..> that surrounds them.
