Want my daemons to have their own logger instance

I have a daemon named "sketcher" and I want everything related to the "sketcher" program to go to "sketcher.log"

I've tried putting   logger = Logger.new(File.join("#{RAILS_ROOT}/log", "sketcher.log")

in the top method of the daemon, but this only succeeds in getting messages from that same class into my logger. Most of the log messages from ActiveRecord and other classes end up in development.log, as usual.

Is there an easy way to redirect all output from each of my daemons into their own log files?

Thanks - T
