Jim,
All of the above except SIGHUP. By modifying log4j settings at runtime, I meant that
an external process (possibly non-java) modifies the settings of a log4j environment.
This could be done using RMI or even HTTP. For example see Volker Metzner's pluggable
server which allows log4j to be configured using HTTP requests. Regards, Ceki
