Since timer.Change( ) is called every time an event is added, I think it is not 
the timer.  I made a change elsewhere in my code, changing this:

            RemotingConfiguration.Configure(null, true);

To this:

            RemotingConfiguration.Configure(null, false);


Data started flowing when I turned off the security on both ends.  I don't know 
if I will be able to keep it this way, but any machine on which this is done 
will be behind the firewall, so hopefully I won't have to figure out all the 
security stuff for remoting.

IMHO here be dragons:

        protected override void Append(LoggingEvent loggingEvent)
        {
            base.Append(loggingEvent);
            timer.Change(FlushPeriod * 1000, Timeout.Infinite);
        }

According to:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/yz1c7148.aspx

If period is zero (0) or 
Infinite<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.timeout.infinite.aspx>,
 and dueTime is not Infinite, the callback method is invoked once; the periodic 
behavior of the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling 
Change<http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.threading.timer.change.aspx>
 and specifying a positive value for period.

You implemented a timed appender .. maybe you forgot to start the timer? :)

I also set up my test client to call LogManager.Shutdown( ) separately from 
closing the application, with pauses in between things.  After calling shutdown 
(and a long timeout), this message was displayed on the client:

log4net: Hierarchy: Shutdown called on Hierarchy [log4net-default-repository]
log4net:ERROR [TimedRemotingAppender] RemotingAppender [RemotingAppender] failed
to send all queued events before close, in OnClose.

However, all four of the previously mentioned connections remain established 
until the client application itself closes, at which point those connections 
disappear.

OK, here is my situation.

I have a server process written that listens on the correct port for a remoting 
connection.  I see it in NETSTAT:

               TCP    0.0.0.0:8085           DEV-D-21F7T:0          LISTENING   
    884

My test application makes a few calls to log4net.  I have implemented the 
TimedRemotingAppender shown in these posts:


http://apache-logging.6191.n7.nabble.com/Remote-Appender-td22810.html

As expected, nothing happens in Remoting until the timer expires.  I made four 
logging calls in the test client.  I put a breakpoint in the 
TimedRemotingAppender.Append method to make sure it gets called - it is getting 
called all four times.  Each time it calls base.Append.   Once the timer 
expires and the flush( ) method is called, Remote connections show up in 
NETSTAT:

  TCP    127.0.0.1:8085         DEV-D-21F7T:52589      ESTABLISHED     884
  TCP    127.0.0.1:8085         DEV-D-21F7T:52590      ESTABLISHED     884
  TCP    127.0.0.1:8085         DEV-D-21F7T:52591      ESTABLISHED     884
  TCP    127.0.0.1:8085         DEV-D-21F7T:52592      ESTABLISHED     884
  TCP    127.0.0.1:52589        DEV-D-21F7T:8085       ESTABLISHED     7268
  TCP    127.0.0.1:52590        DEV-D-21F7T:8085       ESTABLISHED     7268
  TCP    127.0.0.1:52591        DEV-D-21F7T:8085       ESTABLISHED     7268
  TCP    127.0.0.1:52592        DEV-D-21F7T:8085       ESTABLISHED     7268

I see a separate remoting connection here for each of the four log events, 
however IRemoteLoggingSink.LogEvents( ) is never called on the server.  Things 
are getting lost somewhere in the bowels of log4net, even though it LOOKS like 
Remoting connections are being made.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as far as where to look?

Thanks,
Peter
