You might want to do as Chuck suggested and try a clean install. Are you using a Tomcat package provided bei CentOS? Then I'd try one available from tomcat.apache.org. And if there's no need for you to stick with 5.0 you could even get 5.5.x. Just a WAG: maybe it's not really a permisson problem but the tomcat-users.xml that is somehow corrupt. If you post it's content here, we can take a look and see if we spot something obviously wrong. Yes, it's far fetched, but I'm out of ideas.
