           Summary: "Too Many Open Files" while using RollingFileAppender
                    with NDC
           Product: Log4j
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: Appender
        AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ranjith.raj@hcl.com


In our Application we use RollingFileAppender with NDC to create individual
logs for each user(or jobs).Each file opened by the Log4j is not closed by it
in any form.After few days of deployment of our application in the server in
Linux.

We got an error with "Too many open files" which resulted in restarting the
server.Since, log files were not closed this error has occured.

We tried to close the log file by closing the appenders for each log file,but
even then when the next request comes in .log4j opens all the previous log
files for every request.

Is it possible to delete or remove the logger instance from repository to avoid
this issue.
