Tomcat on windows platform?

Hi,

We are currently running a web server using apache + tomcat on a linux
machine, but we want to move the web server to a windows machine to avoid
linux system administration. Could anybody share some ideas on how well
apache+tomcat work on windows platform, and how is the security compared
with Linux machine? If apache+tomcat doesn't work well, is there an
alternative solution to run the JSP and Servlet on windows without degrading
the performance?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Re: Tomcat on windows platform?

When on windows, do like windows I say.

For windows (nt4/2k) machines we use IIS-Tomcat 4.12

it works like a charm, except one issue found.

that is the redirector (logic) sends frontpage stuff to tomcat as well
i.e. for the page:

 http:/dir/StaffRosters.jsp

tomcat also gets the requests, among many others

 http:/dir/_vti_cnf/StaffRosters.jsp
 http:/dir/_overlay/staffrosters_edit.jsp.shtml_nav_pyerotechnicsdevelopment-ca15010_bnr.gif
