--- Comment #3 from Scott Deboy <[email protected]> ---
As you mentioned, SocketHubAppender/Receiver are for processing 'live' events.  

The latest developer snapshot of Chainsaw supports Apache Commons-VFS file
systems, which means you can process (and tail) log files accessible via
ssh/sftp, and remove the need to use SocketHubAppender and SocketHubReceiver
(assuming those log files are accessible via ssh).

Here's how:
Use the 'File, Load Chainsaw configuration' menu item, select 'process a log
file', change the Log file format type to 'PatternLayout format' and provide
the patternLayout used by your log file.  Provide the URL to your log file.  If
the log file is on a remote server accessible via ssh, use an sftp:// URL.  See
the Commons-VFS docs for more info on the format of sftp:// URLs.

Check the 'always start Chainsaw with this configuration if you'd like, but I
would recommend saving the configuration off through the 'save configuration
as' button.

Since this isn't a bug, I'm going to close the issue.
