1. You could use rolling files and delete the old ones, or even better, upgrade

No. It can be done in a jsp also, if that is what you mean, ie: put 'Logger
lgErr = Logger.getLogger("ErrLog");' where you have defined ErrLog in your
properties file.

Don't beleive SSS mean anything - should just print out 'SSS'
