How to deploy web app so that it can be access through the internet?

i wanted to deploy my jsp application so that it can be access by the outside world. i am using tomcat as our webserver in development.
i have granted permission from my manager to test on our 'public server' that currently running a asp application on IIS.
my question:
-can one server run both IIS and tomcat together?
-what should i do/ how to configure my web app so that it can run on the public server using
  a. IIS?
  b. tomcat?
-where can i get the documentation in doing it? all i have is the tutorial showing me how to access to localhost only..
-to access the current asp application, we supply url like this(eg): http://hq.watever.com:8383/mainpage.html, so can i configure it so that to access the jsp, the url will be sth like http://hq.watever.com:8383/jsp-page/

sounds like it helps, but i need a working example... i just afraid that i will mess up with our server if it is not being done properly... :>
Im afraid your asking us to write a book here for 200 points.

1st question - yes, IIS and tomcat can exist on the same server for public access, but they will have to have different ports. i.e. only one of them can run on port 80 which is the standard HTTP port.
