		+	== Specifying log file location per instance ==

		+	Logging for multiple instances run from a single OpenSim.exe isn't something that the default log4net configuration handles. Fortunately, log4net accepts environment variables. This allows a script wrapping OpenSim.exe to specify a log location by setting an environment variable. An example snippet for ''Opensim.exe.config'' might be:
