If you want to keep Tomcat on port 8080, you don't need to do anything other 
than run it under its own userid (and fix the file ownership, of course).

Using jsvc is appropriate when you want Tomcat to use port 80, which is 
normally accessible only to root.  Another alternative is to leave Tomcat on 
8080, and use iptables to route requests for port 80 to 8080.

Running Tomcat as root is a major security risk, since a small bug in a webapp 
could open up the whole file system to abuse.
