You will have to read the documentation and see how stuff is loaded and whether or not it is possible. I remember seeing a page that specifically listed the order in which LOG4J tries to search for configuration files. So you MIGHT be able to do this. Allow LOG4J to load the configuration file and then "change" a property at run-time, but I would not know if you can are not. If you check the documentation, I am sure you will be able to find your answer.
