Thanks for the pointer to cronolog. We do use log4j - the log messages in question appear to be coming from the apache product itself. On further inspection it appears that we need to increase plim_fd_cur and plim_fd_max on our Solaris server as we are receiving the wonderful "Too many open files" exception. Once again thanks for the pointer to cronolog.
