You are absolutely right about the lack of website and documentation. Unfortunately, I don't have much spare-time right now... However, there *is* some documentation in the help-section of the app itself. Lilith was formerly called Lumberjack but the name was already taken by another logging-related project on sourceforge so I decided to rename it. All in all, it's a replacement for Chainsaw. It does have it's own appenders which include the ability to send the same (optionally GZIPed) event to multiple recipients, an appender- wide application id (so it's possible to identify the application sending the event, in case there are more than one application running on the same host) and supports parameters with exceptions. I have not updated the parameter handling code to reflect Cekis latest changes, yet. To use my appender, simply add the following dependency to your maven pom file: <dependency> <groupId>de.huxhorn.lilith</groupId> <artifactId>de.huxhorn.lilith.logback.appender.multiplex-classic</ artifactId> <version>0.9.31</version> <scope>runtime</scope> </dependency> and the following too logback.xml: <appender name="multiplex" class ="de.huxhorn.lilith.logback.appender.ClassicMultiplexSocketAppender"> <Compressing>true</Compressing> <!-- will automatically use correct default port --> <ReconnectionDelay>10000</ReconnectionDelay> <IncludeCallerData>true</IncludeCallerData> <RemoteHosts>localhost, 10.200.55.13</RemoteHosts> </appender> You could also, optionally, specify an application id using <ApplicationId>Your identifier</ApplicationId> This has proved to be quite helpful. Hope this helps. Joern. On 14.09.2008, at 16:49, Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen wrote:

So if you use Lilith and you are using one of the Lilith appenders you'll get what you expect.
Looks interesting. Is Lumberjack the old name for Lilith? What exactly does it do? (a logback appender, a log backend?)
An introduction for the uninitated like me on the web site would be nice :)
