Subject: Running Tomcat as root on Linux

Hi All,

I'm setting up a Linux server with Tomcat that will be used for field
trialing.  The server will be connected to the public Internet.  Is it
typical practice to have Tomcat installed and running as root on a
system like this, or should it be running as a less privileged user?

Thanks for any input.
Sean
