SAM, I not an Eclipse user....

But it look like your slashes are wrong... MS is backwards ;)

Not

C:/apache-tomcat-5.5.17

C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.17

If that doesnt work try

C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\bin

this is wrong as well..

C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_10/lib/tools.jar

\

and if that doesnt work try...

"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10"

You really should not have to show an IDE anything more than where Java 
is...

Good Luck ;)

I'm a whoosie, I use Netbeans... run setup, done... but real men use Emacs 
;)
