If netstat (-l for "listeners", -t for "tcp" and -e for "extended") doesn't
show anything running under tomcat5, I'd have to say tomcat isn't running.

Which takes me back to my original question to you - why are you running it
from the startup.sh script, and not /etc/init.d/tomcat5?  There's a lot
more going on in init.d than just running the script.
