I have Checked that it is correct

from config.status

'--with-javaos=/usr/java2/include//irix' '--with-thread=irix'
'--prefix=/usr/local/mbsoftware/emboss' '--with-auth=shadow'
'--with-pngdriver=/usr/freeware' 'CC=cc -DTOMCAT_UID=60003 '
'LDFLAGS=-L/usr/freeware/lib32 -L/usr/freeware/lib'\"

from /etc/passwd

tomcat:x:60003:60003:Tomcat tiddly mouse:/usr/people/tomcat:/bin/ksh
