from the DOCUMENTATION of RollingFileAppender:

"public void setMaxBackupIndex(int maxBackups)

Set the maximum number of backup files to keep around. 

The MaxBackupIndex option determines how many backup files are kept 
before the oldest is erased. This option takes a positive integer 
value. If set to zero, then there will be no backup files and the 
log file will be truncated when it reaches MaxFileSize."


RTFM!
