We're using log4j in a WebLogic environment. We want to do the same thing as you do, send logs from many machines to one single log.
I ended up doing it with a SocketAppender. It works just fine, except that we're seing that it may buckle under heavy load. I can't confirm if that is because we're just logging too much, or if it is because the synchronized block is too large in AppenderSkeleton.doAppend().
