Here is a description of how to use IIS with Tomcat to accomplish this: [Tomcat IIS HowTo](http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-iis-howto.html) – kmote Oct 10 '12 at 15:52

David Wang wrote a post on the MSDN blogs titled "How does JSP work on IIS?" that addresses why JSP can't be run directly under IIS 5.0 and 6.0. The short version is that IIS doesn't run any dynamic content directly, it requires an add-on for it (even ASP.Net). The article mentions a popular add-on to use for servlets is isapi_redirect, which shunts the request to Tomcat for handling (since isapi_redirect is an IIS add-on, IIS still handles communication with the client).

You would have to get Tomcat's ** isapi_redirect** (as per link). – Buhake Sindi Nov 11 '10 at 11:20
