I think it's the safe thing to do. I think Tomcat 3.3 and Tomcat 4 both do this by
default. For Tomcat 3.2.X, I do this in custom startup scripts which make
startup/shutdown a lot easier if you're maintaining multiple copies of Tomcat per
host. I also modify bin/tomcat.sh to redirect stdout/err to log files instead of
cluttering the terminal. If anyone is interested, I can send copies of the scripts
and the patch to tomcat.sh...
I would at least like to see the stdout/err patch integrated into Tomcat, I just
don't know if there's much interest in including it into Tomcat 3.2.
