Raj,
This servlet compliments configureAndWatch by providing an alternate way to adjust 
logging levels while the application is running.  I think that your guess about how 
this servlet will behave in a cluster is accurate.  JMX is probably a more direct way 
to control logging levels throughout a cluster, although I don't know if anyone has 
implemented that functionality yet.

Would this work with configureAndWatch? Also we use
log4j within a weblogic cluster. i wonder how it will
behave in a cluster, my guess it will change the
levels on the server which handled the servlet request
while on other server within the cluster it will
remain unchanged?
