Has anyone found a way to get around this? Or a better technique to conglomerate logging from multiple web servers reliably?
Any ideas on good log4net log file analysis tools too (plain text not XML) - apart from good 'ol grep of course :)

The database-based appenders are great for collecting logs from multiple servers.
The 1024 byte limit is part of the syslog RFC (section 4.1), as is UDP transport which doesn't have guaranteed delivery (in case you worry about log lines lost in the ether). I think syslog-ng can solve both these issues, but I'm not a syslog expert.
I read about logFaces on another question, or you could use a socket appender and write your own server. logFaces describes itself as a "Log server, aggregator & viewer" but I'm yet to try it.
