Hi André - between yours and Mark's advice I have managed to do what i needed to.
Thank you all - i'm amazed at the level of response... (half expected to look in a month and see no responses.) One last thing - If you upload the .war files with the tomcat manager / host-manager is there a way to do this - or will it always involve hand editing the server.xml file (and renaming directories). ? Thanks again everybody - you've possible just saved my monitor from being throw out the window.
