[FTPSERVER-452] Can't lower log level

Description

I have a custom log4j.properties file in my project's src/test/resources/, setting the Threshold to WARN. This correctly alters the log level for my logging statements.

crawler/src/test/resources/log4j.properties:

```
log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, stdout

log4j.appender.stdout.Threshold=WARN

log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p [%t] %m%n
```

But where my unit tests reference ftpserver, I'm still seeing lots of INFO level output. I thought my log4j.properties was supposed to capture and override other loggers. Could someone help me tweak my log4j.properties to hide INFO logs from ftpserver?

I'm using slf4j-simple 1.7.5.
