Your welcome and many thanks.

Is there a way to stop/restart one application context only instead of  
complete Tomcat? I see that "manager" and "host-manager" folders are  
there but the pages are not accessible, instead the directory content  
is shown in the browser.
Or is the TCD (Tomcat Client Deployer) installed?
