Just to make sure I wasn't crazy, I downloaded 0.8.1 and checked the 
tar ball to make sure.  There is no package called java.util.logging.

Me too, but I think we might have your problem ...

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but if you put your test class in
the package java.util.logging it will send that request to the
bootloader--which is native.  It would be my guess that the exception you are encountering is the bootloader becoming very confused or dying because
it thinks it has a critical error or security breach.

Using the lumberjack-0.8.1 package and JDK 1.2.2, I was able to get it
running and working using the instructions in the READMEs.

The classes are under com.redstarhackers.lumberjack.*.

I did have some problems with getting it to build under NT and Cygwin.
Apparently the Cygwin people changed how it works, so it no longer 
builds the same.  I'll try and fix that and update the docs.

The docs contain information on how to run a test client setup.
If you want to try your own client, take a look at how 
com.redstarhackers.lumberjack.CLIMonitor is put together.
If you want to try and use it in an application, take a look at
EventGenerator for how to embed the source object and how to use it.

Don't forget to change your java policy file to allow you to create
sockets.

Let me know if you need any more help.  I have another release I have
been working on.  I can try and put that up if you would like to use it.
It adds some convenience classes for the test cases, etc.  It has a few
changes in the code base, but most of the work has been on trying to finish
the DB monitor classes.

I'll also crank up my NT instance and install the latest cygwin and see
if I can't fix the build problems.
