Thanks Maarten and Ceki!
Works now, I just didn't fully realize that I had to enable remote
logging for it to work. And of course with UDP you don't get any error
messages if there is a problem in the message receiving...
I hope there will be documentation for the SyslogAppender configuration
values somewhere. :)
Cheers,
Joni

I vaguely remember that we had security issues when we started using the

Most C/C++ apps use the syslog system call, but I believe log4j uses a
TCP
socket
to talk to the syslog daemon.
No, I can authoritatively state that log4j uses UDP.
You have to enable the syslog deamon to accept network (remote)
connections. (It's the -r flag for the vanilla syslog daemon. For
syslogng you need to open a UDP channel.
