I personally use the targets in the beehive source tree for working with the server and the distribution for the webapp bits.

Are you talking about "deploying" the webapp to the server or "deploying" the beehive jars into the webapp lib dir?
<dist home>/ant/beehive-runtime.xml handles copying the jars into the webapp but not removing them.

Actually, the deploy and undeploy targets still appear in the Beehive/ant/buildWebapp.xml but I don't think they exist in the distribution. It would be cool if they did...

Got it working now. Thanks. It looks like there is no deploy target anymore. This is too bad since hitting the web page everytime you want to deploy is kind of a pain...

I believe that this is what is currently the proper way:
1. Copy build.properties and build.xml from <BEEHIVE_HOME>/samples/netui-blank/WEB-INF/src to your WEB-INF/src directory (where <BEEHIVE_HOME> is the root of your distribution).
2. Edit your copy of build.properties to correctly set the value of beehive.home=<BEEHIVE_HOME> (again, where <BEEHIVE_HOME> is the root of
your distribution). You can use beehive.home=${os.BEEHIVE_HOME} if you
have the BEEHIVE_HOME environment variable set to the root of the distribution.
3. Edit your copy of build.xml to set the contextPath property.
4. ant build war
In the case of the Pet Store, you can find the build.xml scripts in the
WEB-INF/src there as well. You probably won't need to update any of the files to build the Pet Store since it is within distribution. Note
that petstoreWeb.war is deposited at <BEEHIVE_HOME>/samples if you use 'ant build war'.

What is the proper way to build a web app from a distribution? I can't find any ant scripts for the Petstore app (for example) when I generate
a distribution. I know I can use the script from the svn enlistment but
it seems a distribution should be standalone.
