Bug Description

This is an improvement, not a bug. The tomcat7 package is splitted so that it allows to run multiple tomcat instances. The ini script has a hardcoded NAME variable and paths depending on it. It should be changed from
   NAME=tomcat7
to
   NAME=$( basename $0 )

CATALINA_HOME in this case should be hardcoded (or moved to a different variable).

Another improvement would be to allow the DEFAULTS file to override the retry parameter of teh stop command to give the tomcat more time to shutdown.
