Is there a sample log4net design document out there anywhere?  Not a des doc 
showing  how log4net works but one that shows how it is used in a project.  I 
have been tasked to write one and was just hoping to find one already made 
that I can use.

Too many rolling files

[Rob Richardson <Ro...@rad-con.com>]

Greetings!

I have a log using a rolling file appender that is configured to save
100 files.  (Or at least I think it is.)  There are currently 109 files
in the folder.  Why?

My configuration file is below.
