Getting closer to the solution.  I have found i can use the following
code to print out the classpath that my program is actaully using the
code is:

Get the System Classloader
        ClassLoader sysClassLoader = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader();

        //Get the URLs
        URL[] urls = ((URLClassLoader)sysClassLoader).getURLs();

        for(int i=0; i< urls.length; i++)
        {
           out.println(urls[i].getFile());
           out.println("<br>");
        }

and the classpath that is printed is:

/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_12/lib/tools.jar
/etc/tomcat5/bin/dist/commons-daemon.jar
/etc/tomcat5/bin/bootstrap.jar

But i am not sure where this is getting set, i do have the following
in my /tomcat5/bin/startup.sh

export CLASSPATH=./mapscript.jar:.:/etc/tomcat5/webapps/my_test/WEB-INF/classes

so why is this not my classpath at run time??
