  If you've downloaded and unpacked a binary distribution of Geronimo,
- then you are finished with installation.  Note that the source
- distribution is provided for reference purposes, but you may not
- actually be able to build a working server from it -- it refers to
- snapshot versions of some third-party libraries which might have
- changed since the time M3 was originally built.
+ then you are finished with installation.  You can also use the
+ installer JAR to customize things like network ports and the
+ administrative login during installation.

+Starting

+ The main server class is also packed in an executable jar,

+   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\server.jar
+
+ Once the server has started, you can access the welcome page by

+ You can also visit the web management console at:

+   
+ To access the console, use the administrative account, which is
+ username "system" and password "manager" by default.

-Starting
-===================

- The main server class is also packed in an executable jar,
- bin/server.jar, and can be ran in a way similar to the deploy tool.
-
-   C:\geronimo> java -jar bin\server.jar
-
- Once the server is running, you can start the debug console with a
- command like this:
-
-   c:\geronimo> java -jar bin\deployer.jar start \
-                          org/apache/geronimo/DebugConsole
-
- Then you can access the debug console by pointing your browser to:
-
-   http://localhost:8080/debug-tool/
-   
- I know what you're thinking, "Why does 'bin\server.jar' use
- back-slashes and 'org/apache/geronimo/DebugConsole' use
- forward-slashes?"  The answer is 'org/apache/geronimo/DebugConsole'
- is a URI; a unique identifier that Geronimo uses to find the app you
- want to start.  URI's use forward-slashes only, never back-slashes.
- So, no matter what operating system you're on, the URI will always look
- similar to the one above.
