Why do you need to change the group if it is set ahead of time?

Off the top of my head I don't know; but you can grep the source code for "setgid()" (or even setegid()). That call sets group membership.
Do you need jsvc to run Tomcat on a privileged port? If not, you could use erni[1] for fine-tuned group membership.
