man nohup    ?

You were right -- nohup solved the issue. I did also notice that the environment variables were quite different so thanks to the user who suggested I try doing a "ssh user@server env" command. I experimented with doing "source /etc/profile" as the first ssh command, but the real issue was the nohup.

Obviously there is something about the SSH shell I don't fully understand in terms of why the tomcat server doesn't background itself over SSH but does when executed from the bash shell. Perhaps backgrounding isn't the right term for what is happening.

Thanks for the help everyone.
