Actually using the same user will cause a conflict with the authbind configuration. When Tomcat is uninstalled the authbind configuration is cleared, and this configuration is tied to the username. So assuming tomcatX and tomcatY share the same username, installing tomcatX, then tomcatY and eventually uninstalling and purging tomcatX will sweep the authbind configuration for tomcatY. Worse, it even deletes the shared user. I'm trying to add authbind support to jetty8 where a common 'jetty' username is used. I thought simply copying the tomcat scripts would be ok, but the shared username will cause a problem when a new version of Jetty is packaged. Technically the jetty and jetty8 packages are already conflicting, purging jetty deletes the jetty user required by jetty8. It there a clean way to handle a shared user between packages?
