How did you install Jenkins? Did you download the file or install it using the installer?

From the tutorial you listed it looks like it's using Tomcat to host the jenkins.war file, ie just copy the jenkins.war file into <tomcat-location>/webapps and it should be working assuming Tomcat is up and running. You can check http://localhost:8080/manager/ for further information about what apps are running.

EDIT

To access the Tomcat manager you might have to add a role to your <tomcat-location>/conf/tomcat-users.xmlfile, like this:

<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<role rolename="manager-script"/>
<user username="admin" password="password" roles="manager-gui,manager script" />
