If you're using Red Hat, look here: http://daydream.stanford.edu/tomcat/tomcatd
Then, also if you are using Red Hat, you would want to use chkconfig to set it up for the appropriate runlevels (3 and 5). chkconfig will create all of the correct symbolic links, etc. for you so that all you need to do is put the tomcatd script in /etc/init.d and run chkconfig.
