Question about RollingFileAppender

[Rahul Kuchhal <ku...@yahoo.com>]

Hi!, I have a question about RollingFileAppender. If
this is not the correct forum to ask this please
ignore this mail.

I have a application that runs on multiple machines.
All running instances of this application use a shared
file (kept on a shread UNC path) to initialize
themselves. The Log4J is also initialized at that time
and the log file name for RollingFileAppender is given
as a UNC full path. So the Log4j classes in all the
JVMs on different machines will try to write to the
same network location.

My question: is this supported by Log4J or only the
first JVM will be able to get the lock and write to
the file? Are there any problems with this
configuration?

Thanks in advance,
Rahul
