Which are the necessary files to execute Solr in a remote host and how to configure the security (permissions, etc)?

I have a database (mysql) at localhost. I use Solr to index and make queries, it works fine. Now I want to put the Solr index on a remote host. I know that I must have the permission to run java and ssh access. But I must admit that, even though I can make Solr work, I don't understand very well each file that are part of Solr. So what I want to know is which are the files estrictly necessary to make Solr index work to make queries? data files? yes, but what else? And how should I configure the permissions? read only? execute? And... I guess that there are another security items I must pay attention.

Usually you have to install at least a web-container (e.g. Tomcat or Jetty) and deploy the solr-[version].war file onto it. For security reasons you can restrict the access to the Server via web-interface in the configuration of this web-container.

Beneath that solr needs a home-directory in which Solr stores its index and configuration. I think this must have rw permissions since Solr changes the index on import and maintains index-usage-information.
