install webapp task (4.1)

In tomcat 4.1, can the install task be used to install
to a remote machine? (i.e. war file not on the machine
that runs tomcat..)

This kind of question is better addressed to the TOMCAT-USER mailing list.

The install task must be run on the same machine, because you're passing a
file pathname.  However, because there is no copying involved, it runs
faster and is more convenient during development.

The deploy task can be used for a remote machine, because it uploads the
WAR file as part of the request.  However, you must use a client program
for this (such as the custom Ant task that's described in the docs)
because it requires the use of an HTTP PUT operation to upload the WAR.
