Yes! I use log4j inside EJB containers all the time. You are correct about the EJB specs ... in fact you should not open a Socket directly either.. if you wanted to go this route you would need to make the Sockets obtainable from the container by implementing a construct in the JavaConnectorArchitecture (JCA).
Out ofthe box, this leaves officially JDBC and JMS appenders... both are applicable, the choice of which TBD by the requirements associated w/ your application. I should also add, however, that in development, I use log4j right to a file all the time, and have yet to have a problem. YMMV.
It is also reasonable (and not that tough) to create Custom appenders that write directly to the vendors proprietary logger (I have one for WebLogic if you are interested)
Hope it helps.

Hi folks,
Just a quick query, as the EJB specification forbids you to write to a file (which is what i want to do!) why is it incorrect to do so? The alternatives are using SocketAppender and JMSApender but how do you write to a file using these? or put another way... can you?
Cheers,
