Jason, I have run some BitTorrent experiments on PlanetLab. Why do you 
want to run Tomcat though? That seems like an overkill, unless you've 
written your own tracker already. You can just use an existing 
BitTorrent tracker instead.

I used BNBT EasyTracker (http://bnbteasytracker.sourceforge.net/), which 
also provides a web interface for handling your torrents.

Let me know if you have any questions.

HTH,
nikitas
