I have a web server which holds 3 virtual hosts on Apache, so I started playing with virtual hosts under Tomcat. I think that is a generally good way of separating things - if you need virtual hosts and don't find it an overkill. The most important atribute for you is "appBase" of a <Host ...> element, allowing you to specify the application base directory for all web applications on that virtual host. If, OTOH, you don't need that, you can setup a <Context docBase="ABSOLUTE_PATH" ...> and load it that way. Or setup symbolic links in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps.
