I'm an IIS guy and know its as simple as just using the http://[computername]/path to webapp.. however, I can't seem to figure out how to make this possible for a JSP application I'm writing that runs under Tomcat. Is there a configuration setting I need to set somewhere?

To access the server, use its external IP address (found on the hands-on lab overview page) in the URL bar of a web browser, then append :8080 to it. Test to ensure you are unable to access the Host Manager App on the Tomcat GUI. Note: Tomcat is installed under /usr/local/tomcat9 .
Access the Apache Tomcat console by browsing to http://localhost:8080/ (if installed as a non-root user) or http://localhost/ (if installed as the root user).
You need to use the Port of Tomcat which is by default 8080. So you might want to access you localhost on machine A from machine B as http://A:8080/YourProject And Remember Unlike IIS , it is case sensitive.

Have you created an exception in your firewall?
Assuming that Tomcat is running on port 8080 and this is a Windows XP machine, the the firewall will block that port (not the case on Windows Server 2003).
The firewall can be configured by: choosing the Windows Firewall from the Control Panel, then click on Exceptions -> Add Port and enter name and number: Tomcat, 8080 and leave transport protocol as TCP
