configurarion? (vitual domains, db connecion pools using Commons DBCP..)
2.- when i try to download the tomcat i see that there is:
Tomcat 5.0.18 zip PGP MD5
5.0.18 Deployer zip PGP MD5
5.0.18 Embed zip PGP MD5
what are the two last ?(5.0.18 Deployer zip PGP MD5, 5.0.18 Embed zip PGP
MD5 ) i need it for using tomcat in production mode?

Hi,
That depends mostly on your application. When we developed our app, some
developers used 4.1.27 and other 5.0.16 (IIRC), and the app is
compatible with both. I do not recall needing to make a special effort
to keep compatibility. So you still may have hope ;-)
Main difference, in our case, was the place where we configured our
connection pool: server.xml in one case, and context.xml in the other.
Other than that, nothing impressive.
Yours,
Antonio Fiol

You will experience a lot of problems making the applications running in
this new version. I had everything ok and running under Tomcat 4.1.x and I
made the terrible mistake of changing the version. It seems it is due to the
way the context.xml is supposed to work in this new version. I am not an
expert, and I have seen a lot of debate but on this list but I was not good
enough to get any conclusion yet and my application is not running yet. It's
driving me nuts . . . . .
Be very careful with your decision, and good luck to u. I did not have any.
