Description Jason 2010-03-19 19:00:08 UTC 
The user and group for tomcat are configurable, however the id has to be 80. This didn't make sense to me, so I put a configurable option in for the id as well.

Fix: patch included

Patch attached with submission follows:
Comment 1 Jason 2010-03-20 02:19:28 UTC 
Forgot to include the "patch" prefix.

To expand on the description a bit... I believe having the choice of a
user/group introduced a bug

The 'www' user is the default user and group, however there is a choice
to use something other than the default. However,  the uid is not an
option to tune, and has to be '80'.

The 'www' user is in /usr/ports/UPDATING, so in order to add a different
user, you would need to remove the www user, but this causes a warning
when doing a 'make index' under /usr/ports.

You could simply change the id of www on your system, but I don't think
this is the best solution, therefore the patch I submitted.

Correction: 'www' uid is in /usr/ports/UIDs
