you :-)

I'm going to pick on your semantics a little - using Tomcat, you DO
have a web server - it is just built into Tomcat. It is fairly
automatic to set up and is a fine solution for lighter weight kinds
of things, IIRC. And you can also tie in to Apache, etc. I'm not sure
at what point one turns away from the internal web server and uses an
external one. Does WAS also have an internal web server?
