Description
Hadoop is currently using log4j version 1.2.13 and this version does not support the use of a non-default syslog port when specifying the syslog server destination. Syslogging is important to us and even more so with audit logging introduced in hadoop-0.18. The current released version of log4j is 1.2.15 which does support the use of specifying a non-default syslog port (introduced in log4j 1.2.14) as well as many other syslog enhancements and fixes (http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/changes-report.html).
