What's interesting is that the automatic deployment process takes the
war file that I place in webapps/apps#myapp.war and creates a
corresponding file in this folder:

  C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
6.0\conf\Catalina\localhost

named:

  apps#myapp.xml

with contents that match the META-INF/context.xml file in the .war:

  <?xml version=3D"1.0" encoding=3D"UTF-8"?>
  <Context reloadable=3D"true" debug=3D"true" allowLinking=3D"true">
    <Valve className=3D"org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteHostValve"
allow=3D"[snip]"/>
    <Resource [snip]/>
  </Context>

Yes.  Here's the information from the manager application:

Server Information
Tomcat Version:  Apache Tomcat/6.0.18
JVM Version:  1.6.0_06-b02
JVM Vendor:  Sun Microsystems Inc.
OS Name:  Windows XP
OS Version:  5.1
OS Architecture:  x86

The context inside of the .war file (/META-INF/context.xml) as well as
the resulting apps#myapp.xml in:

  C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
6.0\conf\Catalina\localhost

They match and they both look like this:

  <?xml version=3D"1.0" encoding=3D"UTF-8"?>
  <Context reloadable=3D"true" debug=3D"true" allowLinking=3D"true">
    <Valve className=3D"org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteHostValve"
allow=3D"[snip]"/>
    <Resource [snip]/>
  </Context>

Thanks,
