M2 and Remote HTTP Repo on Tomcat

[Marrs, Thomas]

Hi,
I'm trying to setup a shared/remote HTTP-based repository on Tomcat, but I
can't make it work. Here are the steps I've taken:

1) Removed my local M2 repository.
2) Installed Tomcat.
3) Added a repository directory under $CATALINA_HOME
4) Modified my top-level POM as follows:

---
...
    <build>
      ...
    </build>
    
    <profiles>
      <profile>
        <repositories>
          <repository>
            <id>shared</id>
            <name>shared</name>
            <url>http://localhost:18080/repository</url>
          </repository>
          <repository>
            <id>repo1</id>
            <name>repo1</name>
            <url>http://repo1.maven.org</url>
          </repository>
        </repositories>
      </profile>
    </profiles>

    <dependencyManagement>
      ...
    </dependencyManagement>

The 
When I run "m2 install" it ignores the remote repository on Tomcat, and
starts installing the JARs to my local repository. Why?? Have I done
something wrong? Should I be doing something else? Thanks for your help.
