Custom Logger

I'm intersted in having Tomcat3.2 logging it's messages to
something else then files.

I was wondering if it is possible to use for example LOG4J
for doing this with tomcat.

I need to log things to a remote syslogd.

Thanks for your help.

Doing this would require you to create a custom concrete implementation of
org.apache.tomcat.logger.Logger (for Tomcat 3.2) or org.apache.catalina.Logger (for
Tomcat 4.0), and then plug in your implementation with appropriate entries in the
"conf/server.xml" file.

For either version of Tomcat, this is pretty straightforward.
