Keep it simple.  You keep trying to worry about syncing drives up.  I think
that's more complex than things need to be.

In your .properties file on the IIS machine, just use the FQDN of the Tomcat
server and be done with it.

IIS is horrendously slow using mapped drives to serve content.  

I'm not criticizing, just observing.  You can't be everything to everyone,
if you are starting a business you will go bust quickly trying to be
everything to everyone.  Pick your market...in my experience, if someone is
developing with ASP, they will have no desire and no incentive to develop
with Tomcat.  Seems to me it would make a lot more sense to have an
IIS+Tomcat server and an Apache+Tomcat server, and assign customer accounts
accordingly, instead of creating a very complex architecture.  

I know you mentioned that you want only to deal with Tomcat configuration on
one sort of platform, so I have to assume that you are concerned about
complexity and maintenance.  In my opinion, creating an architecture with
many shared servers, one or more shared drive partitions over a network,
etc. is just as complex, if not more complex, to manage and scale.  

If you come up with a working architecture/solution that allows easy resale
of shared hosting accounts and allows complete flexibility for dynamic
solutions, I'd be interested in seeing a document describing it.
