I was under the impression that the configuration block was going in the .Net 2.0 version of EntLib - which I think you can download a beta of.

In one project ( with remote clients) I used a custom email trace listener ( it mails the logs ) + log file . In the other where I need more detailed searching and categories I use a DB trace listener that writes to a DB table and we use query analyser - it's a great view tool and everyone knows how to use it . MS enterprise blocks IMHO are far to fat for the extra functionality they give. A good example as you mentioned is the tightly bound configuration block which is completely different to .net 2.0 Configuration and settings.
