There is another mailing list that is better suited for Java related
questions regarding the JCA-JDBC driver.

It's the Firebird-Java mailing list.

Anyway with Tomcat 4.x you need to either place the jar file in side of
the Tomcat dir in either common/lib or just lib

I tend to install the driver near bye in a separate folder and then
place a sym link into the jakarta-tomcat/lib dir.

Do that and you should be all set. You may also need to sym link the
connector.jar, or at least I did. You may also need to sym link the
log4j-core.jar unless you have one in Tomcat's internal classpath
already.

That should get you up and running. To sign up for the other list go
here.
