If you are trying to access the tomcat server without using Apache, you need to do a couple of things:

Enable the regular http connector (usually listening on port 8080) in the server.xml configuration file. The setting should already be present, but is usually commented out. Uncomment it.
Restart Tomcat.
Point your web-browser to "http://servername:8080/"

That should do the trick.

Here are two resources at apache on how to do this:

Here is a guide at Ubuntu forms which will help if you are using Debian or Ubuntu:
