Thanks Jim!  I used a combo of options 1 and 2.

I downloaded all the required jars from http://www.jalview.org/webstart/ ,
and then packaged them up into a WAR file with our servlet that creates a
JNLP to fire up Jalview with our groovy startup script and custom
jalview.properties.

As always, thanks for your great support!
