Configure ELMAH without having to modify web.config except for httpmodules and httphandler

Question

I want to create seperate config (for example elmah.config) with just

 <configSections>     
       <sectionGroup name="elmah">
       <section name="errorLog"  type="Elmah.ErrorLogSectionHandler,  Elmah" />
    </sectionGroup>
 </configSections> 
    <elmah> 
       <errorLog type="Elmah.SqlErrorLog,Elmah"  connectionString="....." /> 
 </elmah>

I know I will have to add the handler and httpmodule sections to plug-in to ASP.Net 1.1

I just want to seperate out the above portion.

Also it is archaic .Net 1.1 so bear with me ...
