Hi Scott, it's quite easy: you just have to copy the war-file across in your webapps root. Tomcat picks up the war file automatically and redeploys your application. You don't have to mess around with the manager app. It normally only takes a few seonds. Depending on your configuration after some redeploys you might get some memory problems, so if possible you should restart you Tomcat periodically, like every night.
