[opencms-dev] Installation on WebSphere 6.0

[Pomegranate Software- Arash Kaffamanesh]

Hi,

I wrote the following threads for running OpenCms on WebSphere 5 and 6. 
I got them up and running on both environments and they even live after 
2 years ;)

http://www.pomegranate.de:9000/cms/forum/viewthread?thread=77

Hope it could be of help.

Best,
Aash
