Major pain?  Huh?  The RPM builds really easily...  You can then install
gnujsp for a servlet 2.0/jsp 1.0 environment.

: Looking into setting up Java Server Pages. There are several
: implementations. Any sugguestions?

If you want to go "leading edge", go for Tomcat, from 
http://jakarta.apache.org/.  Servlet 2.2/JSP 1.1.  It's FAST too...

Tomcat generates "good" servlets too from the JSPs.  Most JSP engines
take the "non-java" parts of the JSP, and do an out.println() with the
HTML parts of the JSP.  I actually saw a *major* player in the JSP 
app server market that rather than doing that, creates char[] arrays
and populates them one char at a time for the HTML.  Crazy, huh???
