In addition, get the Tomcat 3.2 package from jakarta.apache.org - complete server with servlet engine and JSP and you get source code. Also, download the Java Servlet 2.2 API and the JSP API 1.1 from java.sun.com

As far as helpful sites (and JavaRanch is a great one), check out:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/JSPIntro/
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Servlets/
These on-line tutorials are fairly helpful, although I think the servlet one is at least a version out of date. But they walk you through setting up Tomcat and provide complete solutions for exercises, which can be helpful for beginners.
I also have a book that's not too bad, "Java Developer's Guide to Servlets and JSP" from Bill Bordgen (or something like that).

P.S. I hope this doesn't make me "erudit".
