If you set the unpackWARs attribute of the <Host> tag(s) to false, the
appBase directory can be read-only.  Necessary pieces of .war files will
then be expanded into Tomcat's work directory.

You can change the appBase setting on each <Host> to point anywhere you
want.

You should probably take a long look at:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/index.html
especially the <Host> and <Context> descriptions.
