~From /usr/share/doc/tomcat4/README.Debian.gz:

- - Tomcat 4.1 does not follow symlinks by default. You can change this by
adding
~  this section to your webapp's context definition:

~  <!-- make symlinks work in Tomcat 4.1 -->
~  <Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext"
~             allowLinking="true" />

~  See /etc/tomcat4/server.xml or /var/lib/tomcat4/webapps/admin.xml in
the Debian package tomcat4-admin for examples.
