I've used FTP on Unix and Windows Shares on Windows for this and it has worked well.
Someone else might be able to help you more. I know you should be able to write a servlet to re-deploy your web applications. You should be able to send a servlet a file, it open up the associated war file for overwriting it (not appending), keep a non-shared lock on the file when writing, and completely overwrite the file contents with the new files bytes.
