I am looking for a java web host so that I can write java programs that listens to a certain port. I discover 2 types of hosts: private java (JVM) host and private Tomcat host (more expensive). I am not too sure what is the difference. Can someone explain a little ? Thanks (sorry if this question is childish).

Can someone explain a little ? Firstly, mind that the word "private" makes no sense in this combination, and that Tomcat sits atop a JVM. In a nutshell, Tomcat is a /Servlet Engine/, providing you with a framework to perform web-related operations. It is but one of a couple similar frameworks, cf. for instance <http://www.servlets.com/engines/>. If you are planning to do web/HTTP related operations, and especially if your server is going to perform more than one very limited function, I would recommend that you use a Servlet Engine, because it's going to make your life much easier (and is valuable knowledge). If you plan just on having a poor socket listening for one low-level network operation -- say, Java RMI --, going with just the JVM /might/ be more economical. -- DF.

You might be asking about the type of environments and services an "Internet hosting service" provides, hard to tell. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_hosting_service> <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service>
