What other technologies do you have in the mix already? What is doing the aggregation/reporting?
As Joseph mentioned, you could write to a Windows Event Log, and then use SCOM, Syslog client or even native Windows event forwarding, to send that to a central location (depending on what the central target is). You could write to a text file and use a client to send that to a central syslog server or SQL Server. MSMQ is another option.

Our current system of log4net into files on each server is quickly proving to be a nightmare - We are struggling to find out when, where, how and why things are breaking because of the rapid growth we have experienced. E.g. things we have thought about include log4net into a DB that we can pull into a centralised location, MSMQ, file watchers etc. What have you guys done in the past? Thanks, Dave Walker
