Yah I think we could do that :) Yah as you said it is going to one configuration file to configure another configuration :)

So there should be some other way to do this. I'm not writing to disagree with you, in fact what I'm about to say is sort of off-topic -- but couldn't you write a ContextListener that sets a System Property by reading a configuration file (of your own creation)? Admittedly this gets a little convoluted -- you're using a config file to tell a ContextListener to set a System Property pointing to another config file that tells Log4J how to configure itself. But in theory does it work?
