I'm do not know very well paxconf man (but I will son, as I want to
enhance it) but you should:
1. have confman bundle installed and started
2. set up the config directory
  2.1. you can use the default dir:
    configurations/services for managed service ( this is for pax logger )
    configurations/factories for managed service factory
  2.2. set up your configurations dir using property
bundles.configuration.location and have a subdirectory to that dir
named "services"
3. have a file named org.ops4j.pax.logging.properties in the services
directory. The file should contain the usual content of a
log4j.properties
4. start pax runner

If you want to configure the property "bundles.configuration.location"
via pax runner options you can do:

pax-run "--vmOptions=-Dbundles.configuration.location=c:/config"

If you use the file scanner you should be able to put in your provisioning file:

-Dbundles.configuration.location=c:/config

If you are using pom scanner you should be able have in the pom:

<properties>
  <bundles.configuration.location>c:/config</bundles.configuration.location>
</properties>

I'm gonna test all of this right now and I will be back with
confirmation or corrections.
