Logging configuration question (changing var/log)

Hi all!

Currently I add some content to the Basic Configuration section. To be 
more concrete, I tried to add some things to logging.

http://cwiki.apache.org/DIRxSRVx10/basic-configuration-tasks.html#Basicconfigurationtasks-Configurelogging

I have a (simple?) question related to log file locations. The main 
configuration file log4j.properties is located in ADS_HOME/conf, file 
names (for  the rolling file appender for instance) are relative to 
ADS_HOME/var/log.

And now the question:
Where is the path "var/log" configured? Is it possible to change it? If 
I use the Windows Service, I am able to configure locations and even 
change this path, but this setting produces the desired effect only for 
the daemon and stdout/stderr, not for the appenders of log4j.

Thanks in advance,
     Stefan
