Well, I'm probably not using this the best way, but I just have my ant prod_dist wrap up the project as ROOT.war and drop it in webapps/
I have webapps nfs-shared, and I have tomcat running as a member of group "web", so when I run ant with prod_dist target, that deletes the /mount/webapps/ROOT, then copies ROOT.war -> /mount/webapps/ROOT. Then I remove/install from manager. There may be documentation that describes the best practices, but I haven't seen it.
