Thanks André!  This is very helpful.

We have a new user base that requires our application to run as a
stand-alone, disconnected App. Today our App is an Online Web Application
running under Websphere. I was also looking to see if anyone is currently
deploying a Web Application (Servlet/JSP) running on Tomcat as a
*stand-alone,* *disconnect* application.   Our goal is to use our same Java
Web application code base for Online connected users as well as disconnected
stand-alone users.   If no one out there is doing this, I am going to infer
it's not a very good idea and look into a rewrite of the code to work under
windows as a desktop app.

I wouldn't say it's not a good idea, it just seems to be a lot of work, since you need to configure a TC server on every user's machine. Why not just set it up on an in-house server that cannot be accessed from the outside world, but can be accessed from the in-house LAN?

If you choose to make it a java desktop app, you'll probably find that a lot of your code can be used unchanged, especially if the UI code is fairly well separated from the back-end processes code.
