Adding a context has to do with Tomcat only, so it is left out of the IIS "howto" to avoid duplication. Configuring contexts still isn't well documented in Tomcat 3.2.x's tomcat-ug.html. Tomcat 3.3's tomcat-ug.html has a small section addressing this. Since, this is one area that changed from Tomcat 3.2.x, so Tomcat 3.3's documentation for this doesn't apply to Tomcat 3.2.x for the most part.
