I've had absolutely NOTHING but trouble with Tomcat/JDBC on XTR's - with the
original boxes, it'd completely lock up the XTR after a few days, and
I'd have to get the colo facility to reset the machines.

Absolutely horrible experiences.  I've setup/used Tomcat on a bunch of other
boxes (Debian, FreeBSD too afaik) with no problems, and I never figured out
why it was causing me so much grief on the XTR.

I'm getting very close to a initial Qbalt release, basically my biggest
hurdle right now is getting my hands on a XTR physically so I can get the
install side of things happening.  It seems the XTR is the most problematic
Cobalt yet - and it certainly doesn't seem to be the hardware's fault, as
they're very capable machines...
