Just to help anyone else out there; I removed the tomcat rpm's, just downloaded the non-rpm package from the tomcat website, and it works fine.

I've not made any changes to the default server.xml file located in /etc/tomcat5/server.xml ; I'm surprised this is actually being tough to play with, since the tomcat installer on windows installed the app and it was running without issue out of the box....any help would be appreciated.
