A major part of tomcat administration is the management panel. This is located at www.domain.com/manager/html and access to this is protected by the file at conf/tomcat-users.xml . If we were to provide shared users with access to this, they would be able to access each other's management panel since the conf/tomcat-users.xml file is global.
This is where private tomcat comes in. We install an instance of tomcat in the user's home at /home/username/tomcat . Then, we can provide them access to the management panel since their tomcat-users.xml file is theirs only.
