Thanks. I have Chainsaw v1. If you let me know how to access the V2
software I can give it a try. If the new version includes code for loading
a remote XML file via a standard URL and a static factory method to start
Chainsaw I think that might be beneficial.

First question, are we talking about Chainsaw v1 (part of the log4j
1.2.8 distribution), or Chainsaw v2, which accessible from CVS, but not
officially released as yet.

If you are willing to try things direct from CVS, we might be able to
help. v1 of Chainsaw is not being actively maintained, but v2 is
currently in heavy, if sporadic, development.
Loading a remote XML file via a standard URL has not made it into the v2
version as yet. It really should be simple to do, so maybe I should get
off my but and do it....
Starting from within a running VM would be a little difficult at the
moment, I think I could add a static factory method to create one for
you. Would that help?
cheers,
