Tomcat comes as a binary.  Just download the binary
distribution.  See:

http://tomcat.apache.org/download-55.cgi#5.5.12

On linux, I normally create a special user for Tomcat
and make it a mamber of the same group that the user
that runs Apache is under.  This is www for Fedora
Core 4.

I usually install Java under /opt or /usr, and then
link the current Java version to /opt/java or
/usr/java.  I then put /opt/java/bin or /usr/java/bin
the path BEFORE /usr/bin, since Fedora Core 4 installs
GNU's Java.  This is not a bad thing, but setting up
the path in /etc/profile is a good thing.

Just a few thoughts.  I hope this gets you started.
