i know this solution is anything but not secure. but the main point iin doing this is a juristic question. if someone is able to put a war file into the tomcat installed to your computer he can do probably anything he wants to your computer. but if he is able to do so, this security break is not the concern of me anymore, but the user's of this machine.

Hi Stephan,

well, that's awkward.

Even if you are able to disable automatic deployment, anybody knowing
his ways around Tomcat will be able to change the settings again thus
make Tomcat load the other apps :(

my idea would be to write a valve checking which apps are installed:
If any other then your delivered apps are installed, Tomcat is
forwarding the request to a customized error-page.

however, even this solution will not prevent anybody from tampering.
