su tomcat -c tomcatstartscript

You will need to give the tomcat user write access to the appropriate
directories (the log directory, the webapps directory (if you unpack
wars) and any other work directories) spring to mind. Obviously it will
also have to have read access to a bunch of stuff.

The redhat rpms alraady do this (with the tomcat4 user).

To get such a beast to appear on port 80 I'm using iptables on linux to
forward from port 80 to port 8080 as described at 
http://www.klawitter.de/tomcat80.html
