tomcat5 and setting the heap size

I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out how to set the jvm heap 
size with the jakarta-tomcat5.0 port on freebsd.

Can anyone drop any clues for me?  I've tried setting some JAVA_OPTS to 
-Xm100m (too increase it to 100Megs) in the catalina.sh files and so on, but 
no go.  I got it to work by running the following command on the command 
line from the /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat5.0 directory

su -f -m www -c "/usr/local/jdk1.4.2/bin/java -jar 
-Dcatalina.home=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat5.0 -Xmx100m bin/bootstrap.jar 
start"

How can I go about getting that -Xmx100m options being read when executing

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/020.jakarta-tomcat50.sh

Thanks,
Stephane
