IIRC, the ConsoleAppender in Log4J just writes to System.out or
System.err, so Tomcat redirecting those streams will affect Log4J as well.
On Unix systems, Tomcat has *always* redirected console output to a file
-- but of course it's still really easy to use
tail -f $CATALINA_HOME/logs/catalina.out"
to monitor the output. On recent Windows OSs (but not 98) you can
accomplish the same thing by installing CYGWIN and using it's "tail"
command.
