Hi Eric,
Take a look at JRun.
Also take a look at Enhydra.
I have installed Enhydra and made it work quite easily. I suspect that with
Version 3.0, the bugs are just about gone.
I used JRun at The Money Store several years ago to get my enterprise expert
system running on the local network. Not too hard to use, and there is a
free version.
Enhydra (www.enhydra.org) is fully open source and chock full of nifty
features.
