i may be misreading stuff badly, but i don't see how it's even
*remotely* possible that alfresco, out of the box, is going to install

is invoked when you try to start alfresco:
I don't run the script. I get the war distribution called
'alfresco-community-war-2.1.0.tar.gz'. It's located at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=143373&package_id=157460&release_id=524558
I untar'd it... and the rest is described in my message.
I hate that so many java applications out there have to install their
own jdk. Thankfully Alfresco comes with a raw .war version that can be
installed into an existing tomcat/jdk environment.
The only thing my description does not do is start OpenOffice on
bootup. I figure a simple startup script should fix that. I have run
the headless mode manually in a separate login session and it works fine
communicating to it.
So, Alfresco does run on F8's (and F7) Tomcat as long as you get Sun's
1.6 jdk/jre.

OK - you got my interest here now that I've had some time to check out
alfresco
Do you really want to run Fedora 8 instead of RHELv5 or CentOS-5 ?
I followed the same directions on Centos5 with the exceptions of picking
up the Sun jdk from the OpenNMS yum repository, and having to track down
the mysql-connector-java-5.0.8-1jpp.noarch.rpm from somewhere (it would
have been standard in fedora). The web side came up OK, but now I want
the cifs share...
