simple changes to HOWTO

Hello,

I just pulled down the latest source for Tomcat from CVS, and compiled
it with the Ant tools.  The process is so perfect and clean, I'm really
impressed.

I do have just two slight changes to the HOWTO I'd like to propose. 
I've seen requests for these types of changes before, so maybe someone
will find them useful.

Basically, I changed the location to place the module mod_jserv.so.  In
my Apache installation, which is a regular ./configure; make; make
install, the modules directory is libexec.  This is further supported by
the etc/tomcat.conf file, which references the module in
libexec/mod_jserv.so.

The second change is just informing the user to start up Tomcat with the
supplied startup scripts.

Hope people find these useful,
Seth

Thanks for making the document changes.  Just a note, I noticed for the win32
version of Apache you do actually place the Jserv.dll in the /modules
directory.  So for win32 the doc wad ok but for UNIX it should be /libexec.
