I have looked through the help documentation in netbeans 6.5.1 but cannot find anything explicit explaining how to deploy/import a war package.
I know in Eclipse, it's as easy as right clicking in the Project Explorer >> select IMPORT >> WAR FILE.
However, I still am unable to find a solution for Netbeans.
Thankyou, Jordan

Perhaps the simplest way to deploy a WAR file to Tomcat is to copy the file to Tomcat's webapps directory. Copy and paste WAR files into Tomcat's webapps directory to deploy them. Tomcat monitors this webapps directory for changes, and if it finds a new file there, it will attempt to deploy it.
Click on the arrow to the left of your package's name to expand the folder view. Right-click on the main project folder, then select "New," then "Other." Select "Other" from the file selection window, then select "Folder." Give your folder a name and click "Finish."
posted elsewhere, thought i might post here too.
after some googling I've found the solution and here are the steps:
(tested using apache's ode.war in NetBeans 8.0)

I assume you don't already have an ant or maven project for your web project? If you did, you would just import a maven project or create a Web Free-Form Application and wire it up to your ant script.
I would unzip the war file, create a new web application with existing sources in netbeans and wire everything up using the wizard.
