NOTE: If you are trying to install the Sun JDK on a remote server, then you will have to download the JDK through a text web browser such as elinks, which is available through yum and usually installed by default. An interactive browser is necessary as you must agree to Sun's licensing terms. If this is not an option, then you can always download it on another computer and FTP it to the remote server.

Step 4: Download and install Apache Tomcat 5.5.x
NOTE: If you are trying to install the Apache Tomcat on a remote server, then you can download it through wget, which is available through yum and usually installed by default. If this is not an option, then you can always download it using a text web browser such as elinks or FTP from another computer.
In order to download Apache Tomcat 5.5.x, navigate to the Apache Tomcat website (http://tomcat.apache.org/) and click on the Tomcat 5.x link under the Download section. The following screen will allow you to download the latest version of Apache Tomcat, which is 5.5.23 as of July 2007. Under the "Binary Distributions" section of 5.5.23, choose to download the TAR.GZ version of the Core distribution as seen in the screenshot below.
Once you have downloaded the TAR.GZ, you simply need to extract the files from it into the directory where Tomcat will live. This needs to be the same as the CATALINA_HOME environment variable we set earlier (/usr/local/tomcat). Also, Tomcat needs a user account to run as, so we will create the "tomcat" user and give it permission to the Tomcat directory.
