    Logging to a Seperate Server

    The log4j framework has a number of appenders that allow you to send log message to an external server. Common appenders include:

     

    • org.apache.log4j.net.JMSAppender

    • org.apache.log4j.net.SMTPAppender

    • org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender

    • org.apache.log4j.net.SyslogAppender

    • org.apache.log4j.net.TelnetAppender

     

    Documentation on configuration of these appenders can be found at http://logging.apache.org/. JBoss has a Log4jSocketServer service

    that allows for easy use of the SocketAppender. See Log4jSocketServer for

    an example of how to setup and use this service to collect log output from

    one or more log4j clients.
