The directory created by Cactus is under Cactus Ant tasks control and you should not tamper with it. The Cactus Ant task will delete it every time you run a container. There's currently no way to tell the Cactus Ant tasks to also copy a directory. Your best bet ATM is not to use the <cactus> Ant task or to use it with a <generic> container. You could also try using the <runservertests>. All of this will required more work from you unfortunately. You should also know that Cactus is currently undergoing a refactoring in that it is migrating to Cargo (http://cargo.codehaus.org). So all container-related features of Cactus will be removed and will be handled by Cargo in the next version of Cactus. Your use case is currently not taken into account by Cargo and you may want to raise to the Cargo user list to that it is included in the future.
