NOT WORKING - Tomcat 4.0.5 and IIS 5

Question

I'm trying to set up Tomcat to work with IIS 5 on windows 2000 server.
I got everything working fine locally. I deployed my app and it's working fine on localhost:8080. Now I want to be able to see it from the outside and some files that I try to view from my domain come up with the actual source code.
I ran with several tutorials that keep saying "Hey, you did it...it's was so easy wasn't it?" and they don't say anything when it all goes wrong. No one goes the extra step to help out when these easy instructions do nothing. I'm looking at this for far too long now and I'm losing my mind slowly.
I have IIS running and restarted it with jakarta virtual directory that has a green arrow up. But localhost doesn't find the pages. So I'm not sure what could be wrong.
I'm having a lot of trouble with the workers.properties file. If anyone could help me with that it would be great. The uriworkmap seems to be quite simple, and goes the same way as the web.xml server uri-mapping. But I'm not sure what could be wrong.
I also tried to get tomcat to service jsp files and IIS everything else, but still nothing.
Thanks in advance,
Lior

Well, something was wrong with my configurations of the registry amongst other things. Now I have everything in place and I played with the workers.prop file. However, it still doesn't work. I get the following in the isapi_redirect.log file:

I have no idea why it cannot get the worker. This is the prop file I have:
workers.tomcat_home=c:\tomcat
workers.java_home=c:\jdk1.3.1_04
ps=\
worker.list = ajp13
worker.ajp13.type = ajp13
worker.ajp13.host = localhost
worker.ajp13.port = 8009
Thanks.
