Hello,
we're looking at packaging up our current NetDirector bug fix release and we want it available as .rpm
at this moment, the maintainers don't have a test environment for Centos
does anyone know whether the latest versions of and Centos can satisfy Tomcat 5 and Java 1.4 JDK as dependencies?
thanks in advance!

I haven't had good luck with the java and tomcat that ship with CentOS. /usr/bin/java is GNU gij 4.1.2, and tomcat is compiled with it.
I ended up installing the Sun runtime and the tomcat binaries from apache.org to get our tomcat environment to work as expected.
Perhaps, however, other list members have more heartening stories to tell.

as someone else said, the Java packaged with CentOS is GCJ, which is, imho, an abomination. I uninstall GCJ and all its dependencies, and use the Jpackage.org RPMs to install Sun Java and anything else such as Tomcat (they have Tomcat 4.x, 5.0, and 5.5 available, it looks like)
Note that on jpackage.org, JPP 1.7 is based on Java 1.4.2, while JPP 5.0 uses Java 5... I reommend starting here -> http://www.jpackage.org/jppfaq.php
