Use log4j's Chainsaw (http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/chainsaw.html)
configured to load your log file using a LogFilePatternReceiver (construct a
new LogFilePatternReceiver from the receiver panel in Chainsaw).
If you have the userID available as a property (MDC entry), you can filter
dynamically in the UI for the user's ID or specify an expressionFilter in
LogFilePatternReceiver's config to only forward events which match the provided
expression. In both cases, the expression would be something like:
PROP.userID == 'joeuser'
LogFilePatternReceiver's config information is available from inside Chainsaw's
help menu, as well as in the receiver panel when defining a new
LogFilePatternReceiver configuration.

Thank you for the answer. Just out of curious, is it
normal to log
everything in one file for all users? If needs
trouble shooting later, is
there a better tool to extract the related log entries
for a specific user,
time ...,etc?
Thanks,
Chiming
