I think the root-run version listens on both those ports by default. I 
think 8005 was the JK2 connector to Apache and 8080 is the web content 
port. (Been awhile since I messed with Tomcat.)

Without the "-i", lsof (list open files) reports all regular files, and can 
be used to locate what files a process is actively using. You can also 
strace a process to see what it opens over time. (Redirect output to a file 
and filter aggressively as an strace log gets huge fast.)

Look up-thread for how to get Eclipse to run a private copy of Tomcat.
