Yes, but depending on the version of Tomcat it will either ignore or
extend CLASSPATH, so you want to make sure the variable is null before
running the scripts.

I haven't tried it, but the doc implies you need:
userClass="org.apache.catalina.startup.HomesUserDatabase"
when specifying a homeBase attribute; the PasswdUserDatabase class looks
only in the /etc/passwd file identify the users.

Correct - you normally need an appname.xml file in conf/Catalina/[host]
to tell Tomcat where the app is located. The contents of said file
should be something like this:
<Context docBase="/home/[user]/public_html/appname" />
The UserConfig Listener creates these <Context> elements internally,
avoiding the need to build one maually for every user.
