I added a symlink to it in the $CATALINA_BASE/lib directory and that did
it...thanks guys!

Standalone jave works, but the servlet doesn't?  Sounds like either the file

isn't in the right place ( $CATALINA_BASE/common/lib, $CATALINA_BASE/lib, or

WEB-INF/lib ) or it's named as a .zip instead of .jar.  Tomcat only looks
for 
.jar files (.zip files are ignored) in one of the above listed directories.

Hope this helps some in figuring things out...
