EventLogAppender problems

[Steve Slatcher <st...@scientia.com>]

Hi

I am using log4net 1.2.9 beta and struggling to configure an 
EventLogAppender.  I am trying to use the config file below, which hopefully 
indicates, to the human eye at least, the effect I want to achieve.

I have created a source called "DSC" in the Application log and written to 
that successfully using the MS Framework EventLog class.

I can also succesfully write to the Event Log using log4net, but...

The source of the messages is "ASP.NET 2.0.50215.0".  Did I mention I was 
using the ASP.NET beta?

The type is "Information"

The layout of the message seems to be some sort of default, which is 
actually quite nice, but not what is specified in the config file.

Any help gratefully recieved

Oops.  Should've been logName.  Still doesn't work.

Obvious (now) misconfiguration!  Sorry for disturbing you (if I did).
