                 Key: CHUKWA-160
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-160
             Project: Hadoop Chukwa
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: input tools
            Reporter: Jerome Boulon


use log4j to set permission to the log file, ex: 
log4j.appender.CHUKWA.readPermission=

    * readPermission field not present in log4j, don't do anything, file 
permission will use the default
    * readPermission field set to "All" then setReadable(true, false) otherwise 
setReadable(true, true)
    * readPermission field set to "Group" 

    * writePermission field not present in log4j, don't do anything, file 
permission will use the default
    * writePermission field set to "All" then setWritable(true, false) 
otherwise setReadable(true, true)
    * writePermission field set to Group"

However, it seems not possible to set permission at the group level so this may 
be a potential issue that may force us to
continue using chmod for specific case.
