Hi all, log4j is currently running on a few servers here, and I'd like to get my logs more organized. As it stands, I'm using FileAppenders that roll at 5mb with a backup of 20 files - a tad messy at times. I'm going to switch to a daily roll, but I'd also like to try using SocketAppenders. I have a few questions:
- Can I use a SocketAppender to send logging data to a syslog daemon on a remote host? - How do I use Chainsaw with a SocketAppender? Do I simply setup a receiver within Chainsaw? - When using a daily file roll, is the file overwritten every night - or is it timestamped and a new file is created? Or will I have to script this myself?
