Sounds like something WebStart can do very nice for you.
Create a java app, which installs a .war file in the right location.
Add a .war file as a resource to the webstart application.
Put the webstart app in the startup-folder of windows. Or let the webstart app
launch the Tomcat.
You can even add Tomcat to webstart, so Tomcat updates are distributed
automaticly.

We have a servlet that is run locally on about 20 laptops. I am
currently manually updating the application on each laptop about once
per month. Can anyone suggest a method of updating an application
running on both OS/X and Windows based machines that would check if a
new version was available and then grab it via FTP, Rsync, or
something? Or would it be easiest to put the application into a
database record? Any help or pointers appreciated.
Thanks,
