Hi, I installed Tomcat 5.0.16 as root.  Now it means that I have to start and stop it 
being root unless I change ownership on a number of directories including 
$TOMCAT_HOME/bin.
My question is should I run Tomcat as root or should I create a Tomcat User with the 
rights to start and stop tomcat and change ownership on ALL Tomcat directories to that 
user?
I don't think Tomcat 5 comes with startup scripts.  I'm trying to write a startup 
script but inside the script I have to 'su root' and that means I'll be prompted to 
enter the password.  I'd like Tomcat to start at boot so I need to avoid the password 
prompt.
What is the proper way of doing it since it's my first time.....?
Thanks for your help.

NK
