I've done a similar setup (for what I understand) and have never ran into trouble and dont have to touch server.xml at all.

I just do a /'ln -s/ ' to whatever filesystem or dir my webapps will reside and presto! the link's name is webapps of course. I just copy the manager, admin, ROOT and whatever other tomcat directories I have and everything runs well. Done it with 4.127, 4.131 and 5.5.x on Solaris and Red Hat.

If you give more details about what you are trying to do I may be able to help.

Regards,

Luis

I am have trouble getting symbolic links to work with Tomcat 4.1.27.  I have a 
symbolic link defined for my webapp and I am allow linking for it in the 
server.xml.  However when I do a resource lookup in my application for class 
directory it now fails.  I also notice that a local host log file indicating 
all the jars to deployment is not longer created when I start Tomcat.  Any help 
to this problem will be greatly appreciated.  The customer I am doing this for 
as a rule that applications cannot be installed under /var.
