Hi!

It sounds interesting. We are also interested in logging from multiple
applets. I'm looking forward to test out your DatagramAppender (if you
decide to offer the code to log4j).

Regards
Johan

On a similar thread, I'm busy working on a DatagramAppender
class, mainly by ripping off the SyslogAppender class :-)

The basic problem I have is an applet embedded in an intranet
web page. I want this applet to be able to log issues to a 
central file, no matter what workstations it is running on.
The SocketAppender doesn't appeal as the messages will
hopefully be fairly infrequent but the number of concurrent
users of the applet is likely to be in the hundreds. I don't
want hundreds of sockets open long-term..ok, not fatal but
not really useful in this situation either.

I presume that there isn't already something out there that
does the same job? SyslogAppender is very similar, except
that it is far more complicated than I need (both at sending
and receiving ends).

If no-one comes up with an alternative, I will offer the code
back to log4j when it is ready..

Cheers,

Simon
