AFAIK:
There's no direct relation, other than that they are both part of 
jakarta-apache, and perhaps some of the developers have worked on both. Ant 
is used as it is a platform independent way of building java projects - and 
a very efficient and easy to use (IMHO) way at that.

If you haven't used it, I suggest you give it a go.

Ant is a platform independent build-tool.
Tomcat is an http server and jsp/servlet container.
Tomcat is built with ant
They are not 'related' per-se.
