Howdy, Tomcat is a java program: whatever runs the java command is what runs tomcat. So if you create a user named tomcat with permission to run $JAVA_HOME/bin/java, you're pretty much all set. Make sure the user has rwx permissions to tomcat's logs, temp, and work directories, and at least read permissions for all the webapps.
