Hi,

I could get the tomcat access logs the procedure described. I am
actually looking for tomcat internal logs to go syslog server. As I
mentioned, following reference will probably get it using log4j:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/logging.html#log4j
I wonder if it is possible using Logback.

Thanks,
- Pradnya
