Hi I'm writing an .NET 3.5 web application that is using LinqToSql for the basic database stuff. I'd like to use the nLog library for logging.

In my current project I'm using two libraries where one is using log4net and the other NLog for its logging. I'm personally prefer NLog so it is used in my application as well. I'm not knowing much about log4net so I'm asking what would be the best way to programmatically forward all the messages from log4net to NLog. There is a post a...
I would like to get stack trace (file name and line number) information for logging exceptions etc. in a production environment. The DLLs are installed in the GAC. Is there any way to do this?

Hi, I'm trying to get NLog to log to my database log table but to no avail. I'm sure my connection string is correct because it's the same used elsewhere in my web.config.
