Hi
We have a Tomcat 7.0.39 instance with several applications running within it, 
but all running as the same user as the Tomcat instance.  We have a new 
application we are wanting to add, but this needs to run with a different user 
as it has different accesses it needs that cannot be granted to the other 
applications.  I have searched and read, but found anything that looks at this 
level of configuration.

For example, /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.39/bin/startup.sh is executed as 
'fewperms'.  It has an application /mydbprocessor that does stuff using a jdbc 
connection to a db that also executes as fewperms.  I am now adding an 
application /mydeployer that needs to have sudo rights that 'fewperms' may not 
have (company policy).

I would prefer not to have a separate instance of Tomcat to achieve this.  
Everything I have seen / read about so far is how to access TC as a user with a 
different user, not how to run an application as a different user.

Thanks...Andrew
