[logback-user] Logging to a network file system

[Ralph Goers]

The only recommendation I would make is do not have multiple Appender instances try to write to the same file.  In theory, prudent mode will add file locking but my experience is that not all NFS implementations are equal and you may end up with corrupted files if you try to do it.
