tomcat50ctl isn't actually a script.  It's a setuid binary.  Which is
good in the sense that it allows you to control tomcat without needing
root access to a box, but inflexible when it comes to modifying the
Java command line.

When I ran into the problem you're seeing I ended up modifying the
Makefile in the www/jakarta-tomcat5 port so that my custom arguments
got compiled into the tomcat50ctl program.  This diff probably isn't
exactly what you need, but it should show you the idea:

caernarvon:...ports/www/jakarta-tomcat5:% diff -u Makefile.orig Makefile 
--- Makefile.orig       Thu Mar  3 13:22:56 2005

Alternatively, you can modify the
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/020.jakarta-tomcat50.sh script to use the standard
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh and other similar scripts to stop and
start the server, which will permit you to set various environment
variables to achieve the effect you want.

Plans are afoot to produce an enhanced tomcatNNctl program: search the
archives of the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list for more information.

         Cheers,

         Matthew
