ln -s synbolic links not followed on unix/linux

[Hanasaki JiJi <ha...@hanaden.com>]

Tomcat 4.1.12 seems to be having problems with symbolic links under 
linux.  The below error is reported when trying to access the docs 
subdirectory that was soft linked to another part of the filesystem.

ls docs/* shows the directory contents fine.

Is there a way to allow tomcat to traverse the softlinks?  Why is this 
the default behavior?

Thank you
