I also am encountering this problem. There is a similar question posted
in eclipse.newcomer, but there is no response there either.
I would like to be able to either:
1) (preferred) Point at my Tomcat 5.5 instance on my development box.
2) or, work with the Sun App Server that already resides on my Windows
PC (localhost)
Is there now, or will there eventually be, a way to do either of these
options?

Ok -- I found older threads that state that currently remote servers are
not supported. But there was a post (Oct 18, 2004 from Tim deBoer) that
said Servers on Mapped Network drives could be supported.
My remote Tomcat server is on a mapped drive, but I don't see how I can
set it up, because the New Server dialog wipes out the server type list
as soon as I enter a host name other than localhost.
Is there anything I can do to get Tomcat 5.5 to show up in the server
type list for my remote server?

If remote servers are not supported then the UI is flawed because it
implies you can define a server for any host.
You can work with Sun's AppServer on localhost:
https://glassfishplugins.dev.java.net/specifications/introdu ction.html
I was thinking of mapping the Appserver directory on my Sun with Samba to
my Windows box running Eclipse, but I wasn't sure if WTP only manipulated
files, or if it also tried to execute commands.

Hey Eric,
Thanks for the glassfish link. That will be a big help.
