RE: tomcat responds with localhost, but refuses the connection w/
mach inename
Thanks, I have found that it was not tomcat at all, the issue is a
networking mismatch between the dns name, and the real ip address are
completely different. Using the machinename was having dns point me to a
box that was not mine, so of course the connection was refused. Thanks for
the help though.

That's one way. It pretty much comes down to how you want to handle
Contexts. If you want a particular Context to be available for a
particular domain/host and that domain/host only, you would use a separate
Host container.

Cool. Tomcat still has its own resolution rules, though.
