Another option is cron ;-)

Regarding MaxBackupIndex - what appender do you use precisely? 
org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender or
org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender?

 From what I recall (but used it looong ago) MaxBakupIndex was only 
working on the first one. 2nd is from log4j-extras (also included in Unity).

HTH,
