No luck so far. I have done the following:
1. modified jpackage.repo commenting out all the sections except
'[jpackage-fc]'.
2. run 'yum remove tomcat5*'
Reported success
3. run 'yum install tomcat4*'
Reports: "No Match for argument: tomcat4"
So this would suggest to me that tomcat4 is no longer available via yum.
Is my next best choice to simply get the tar.gz file and manually set
up the init.d stuff and edit the files to set $Catalina_Home? Remember,
this is my FIRST exposure to Java and the naming conventions boggle the
mind - i.e. java, containers, struts, jakarta, ...
Thanks again,
Bob

not run under Tomcat 5 at the present. I therefore need to have Tomcat

sure that the Tomcat 5 installation is not called or do the tar.gz files
usually have files I can copy to /etc/init.d to use to start the Tomcat
4 service on boot?
You can get tomcat4 as an rpm through JPackage. The tomcat4 rpm comes
with the files already in init.d, so there is no need to mess around
there. Simply download http://jpackage.org/jpackage.repo to
/etc/yum.repos.d and use yum to install tomcat4.
To start or stop a service on startup, use chkconfig. For example,
/sbin/chkconfig --del tomcat5
/sbin/chkconfig --add tomcat4
