Thanks for that, but that's not exactly what I am asking for. I know
that putting log4j into my webapp will work. What I want to do is to
have Tomcat *itself* use log4j for logging statements. The messages I
linked to say that it's very simple to do. Yet following the
instructions, it doesn't work here.

Thanks,
Patrick
