How to deploy netbeans project or .war in linux(Lubuntu)

Question

I created the project (web app) in windows using netbeans... I copied the war file and put it in the "webapps" inside apache-tomcat installed in Lubuntu... I read a lot of forums and search about it but i'm confused. The lubuntu is VM so in my windows, I can access 192.168.56.101:8080 but I dont know how to deploy the Wep App in linux...

Please help me.. I really appreciate ur help

War files should be extracted automatically on tomcat startup, at your app should be accessible according to the mappings your web.xml, eg 192.168.56.101:8080/myApp . You can find more information regarding how deploys work with tomcat here
