The are no errors in catalina.out Also I have a CentOS 5.4 runnig tomcat6 downloaded from apache I have no problem remotely accessing manager We also have other Linux runnig tomcat from packages and they have no problem accessing the manager remotely It "appears" to be particular to the CentOS package I do not know enough about tomcat to fix this package
A 403 response means you reached the web server network-wise but the server is denying access because it is configured to restrict clients and you haven't authenticated correctly.
