Hi, a possible solution for not lossing messages in case of LAN being down would be to use an other appender (FileAppender) in such cases. Either you check if there is network connection and continue as usually, if there is, or use a FileAppender in case of a problem, either you subclass the needed appender and handle the problem inside your appender.

Hello Our servers have small storage, so I don't want to use FileAppender. What can I do if the LAN is down and my appender wants to send an email or send a Socket message? The buffer will be deleted if the server will reboot, and additionally I don't know what is the physical limit for buffer size. Or is there any possibility to say to log4j: "if you can send the messages:send; if not: call the daily rolling appender"? Because in this case I could write an other application, which looks for log files in every reboot, send the content with some kind of network appender, and delete the log files.
