The usual thing is to save it to init.d and then link to the rc[235].d
of
your choice.
If you've got redhat you can use the chkconfig program on it.
Note though that you'll need to add a user 'tomcat' and make
sure that at least the conf and logs directories are
availible for writing by that user.
You might want to make a 'web' group...
i've also added
------- 8< snip --------
DATE=`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S`
mkdir $TOMCAT/logs/$DATE
mv $TOMCAT/logs/*.log $TOMCAT/logs/$DATE
-------8<---- snip --------
into my shutdown.sh script. This then saves all of your logs when you
do a shutdown - which can be useful !
