I was just looking on the RH7.2 machine and noticed that the rc
script invokes /etc/tomcat4/conf/tomcat4.conf to set JAVA_HOME,
CATALINA_HOME, JASPER_HOME amoung other things. If your package
has that file, it's probably the "appropriate" place to set the
values you want. One of those other things is TOMCAT_USER. If
you don't give it a value in tomcat4.conf, the rc script uses
"tomcat4". When starting it manually, it launches as root. I
tried su'ing to tomcat4, tried "dtomcat4 start" and catalina.out
reported a permissions error. With that fixed, the rc script
works great.
One other thing. tomcat shuts down slowly too. If there are
still old processes around when you try to start it again, it'll
get stuck.
