Thanks, I'll give this a try now and let you know how it turns out.

Eric,
You will need to write an class that implements the
log4net.Appender.RemotingAppender.IRemoteLoggingSink interface.
You need to setup a channel to listen on. You can do this either via the
config file or programmatically:
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<channels>
<channel displayName="Server Channel" ref="tcp server" port="8085" />
</channels>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
If you specify the above in your .config file you will need to call the
following:
RemotingConfiguration.Configure(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.Con
figurationFile);
Or you can setup the channel programmatically:
ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(new TcpChannel(8085));
Then you need to publish an instance of your IRemoteLoggingSink class via
remoting:
RemotingServices.Marshal(remoteLoggingSinkInstance, "LoggingSink",
typeof(IRemoteLoggingSink));
That should do it. While your app is running it will receive logging events
via the remoteLoggingSinkInstance object marshalled.
