I don't have any examples, hopefully somebody that worked out how can post one or add it to the wiki.

The explicit answer is that it's up this source file, so from that one can determine what properties log4cpp's code is looking for.

http://svn.shibboleth.net/view/utilities/cpp-log4shib/trunk/src/PropertyConfiguratorImpl.cpp?revision=83&view=markup

Based on that, it looks like the RollingFileAppender label becomes "SyslogAppender" and the properties to set are:

syslogName
syslogHost
facility
portNumber
