With Tomcat 3.2.1, JDK 1.3 on RedHat 6.2, I wrote a very simple
/etc/rc.d/init.d script, chkconfig'd for init levels 345 that runs the
tomcat/bin/startup.sh script to start tomcat, and runs the
tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh to stop them.
The init.d script redirects any output from either script to a file in
/var/log. It also sets TOMCAT_HOME and JAVA_HOME before running either
script. Works great every time.
Oh, for security reasons, the init.d script runs these commands "su nobody",
and all of the tomcat files are owned by "nobody".
