Hmm. Yes. I hope R�my is involved in it. I would pay for :).

I can't do that, because the conf file will be the same for all servers and
thus, the prefix and suffix will be the same, and there will be competition between
servers when they will have to write their logs.

Well, I'm a sysadmin :). I don't know that much about programming. I hoped
that log4j or another Logger would have this feature already. As I use it in a
stressed production environment, I hope tu keep it as standard (and maintainable) as
possible. Also we didn't validate tomcat5 already, I would like to use such feature
with tomcat4.
For now, I think about a definition file from which I build a machine specific conf
file. But, I feel it a little bit overkill just for fixing filename problem.
Note that if I were a developer, I would subscribe to the -devel list :).
Thank you for your help,
Fran�ois.
