Configuring Tomcat and IIS is documented at [http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc/howto/iis.html the IIS Howto page] . The instructions there work fine, but there is a [http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/win32/jk-1.2.10/isapi_redirect-1.2.10.exe setup program] which allows you to skip steps 1 through 7 in the "Configuring the ISAPI Redirector" section of this page. Also, step 8 can be done using a VBScript file like this:

'Taken from http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/iissdk/html/8fcd5343-07cb-49e9-a206-0c65a988dcca.asp?frame=true and

' or Google the Microsoft web site for "Creating Sites and Virtual Directories Using ADSI" and "Enabling ISAPI Filters Using ADSI"
' with http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Creating+Sites+and+Virtual+Directories+Using+ADSI%22+site%3Amsdn.microsoft.com

Option Explicit
Dim IIsPath
Dim ConnectorPath

Dim FiltersObj 
Dim FilterObj 
Dim LoadOrder 
Dim Name 'of the filter and the virtual directory
Dim DLLName

'Double-check this path
ConnectorPath = "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Jakarta Isapi Redirector\bin\"
 
'Configure the first (default) web site on a machine. Change to "2" for the second web site, etc.
IIsPath = "IIS://LocalHost/W3SVC/1/"

'=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
'SHOULDN'T NEED TO CHANGE ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE
'=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Name = "jakarta"
DLLName = "isapi_redirect.dll"

'Configure the filter order (add it at the bottom of the list)
Set FiltersObj = GetObject(IIsPath & "Filters")
LoadOrder = FiltersObj.FilterLoadOrder
If LoadOrder <> "" Then
  LoadOrder = LoadOrder & ","
End If
LoadOrder = LoadOrder & Name 
FiltersObj.FilterLoadOrder = LoadOrder 
FiltersObj.SetInfo 

'Actually create the filter
'ToDo: set priority. This might be possible with the FilterFlags property, but the IIS doc says:
' "Because this property is internally configured by IIS, you should consider it to be read-only. Do not configure this property."
Set FilterObj = FiltersObj.Create("IIsFilter", Name) 
FilterObj.FilterPath = ConnectorPath & DLLName 
FilterObj.SetInfo

Save this script to a file with a VBS extension. Open it in Notepad and verify that the Connector{{`Path variable is correct for your connector installation. Then open a command prompt and run it with the cscript interpreter: }}cscript filename.vbs` . Restart IIS, and test the connector as mentioned in the Howto (go to http://localhost/servlets-examples/ ).

Corrections on the above script and suggestions on how to get it into the Setup program are welcome.

You still need to do the other steps on the [http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc/howto/iis.html IIS Howto page], such as adding your contexts, etc.
