Don't you have a simple sys admin problem ?
As working under Unix / Linux soft links should give you some possibilities,
shouldn't it ?
A little shell-script like this ?

1�.     mount ont /opt an nfs-shared d-rive where the common read-only
install is
2�.     add a link there where webapp is a local dir
          Smthg like ln -s  /opt/tomcat/webbapp ~/data/webapp
        (U have therefore in your userspace a reference to your own data
which are viewed as the Tomcat webapps directory)
3�.    Add similar soft-links for the logging directories & other user
specific files / directories

You end up with every user sharing one remote install of Tomcat ith there
own environement  !
How to do under Zindozs :-)) .... dunno !

Thomas,
