COM+ allows you to specify an application root directory for each
package. .NET will look in the root directory for a configuration file
called application.config. This is a lot cleaner than using
dllhost.exe.config.

The original poster is looking for instruction on how to use log4net in COM+ (and by that I'm assuming it's a .NET class in COM+ made by inheriting from System.EnterpriseServices.ServicedComponent).
The configuration depends on your usage of COM+. If you are deploying your component as a Library Application, then the typical log4net configuration should be fine as the COM+ component will run "in-process" of your application.
However, if you are deploying your COM+ component as a Server Application, it will be hosted in the COM+ host application dllhost.exe. As a result you need to put the configuration in %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\dllhost.exe.config. (It will most likely not exist so just create a standard .NET configuration file with a log4net section.
You'll also need to ensure that if you want to log to a file from a Server
Application that the identity you are running the application as has
permissions to write to the place you want your log file to be created.
Hope that helps!

I think what he's looking for is how to build it. NLog comes with an
NLog.ComInterop.dll. I would imagine its possible to make something
similiar with log4net. Unless you're required to use log4net I would
just download NLog spend a couple minutes configuring it then go about
focusing on your application and not spend days trying to figure out
how to do it with log4net.
Has anyone on the list built log4net for use by COM?
