+ !!Running Tomcat as a service on Linux
+ If you want to automatically start Tomcat when your system boots and manage it using the service command, you must create an initialization script.\\
+ \\
+ * Create the following Tomcat initialization script as /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat (the script is in the attached file).
+ * Change the attributes of the file with chmod 755 tomcat so it can be executed. 
+ * Add the startup script to your system as follows: 
+ **chkconfig --add tomcat 
+ * You will be able to start/stop/restart it using the following commands: 
+ **service tomcat start 
+ **service tomcat stop 
+ **service tomcat restart 
+ 
+ If you want Tomcat to start automatically when your system boots, you need to add tomcat to your runlevel as follows: 
+ *chkconfig --level 3 tomcat on 
+ **Runlevel 5 is the X Window System, typical for a development computer. 
+ **Runlevel 3 is typical for a dedicated web server.
+ \\
+ Apache and Tomcat can be started in any order, and each can be restarted independently of each other.
