title: Configuring a custom event log for log4net
body: <p>I'm using log4net for logging (duh!). Using the EventLogAppender, I can configure my application name, so that my events will show up in the Application/"My Application Name" event log. However, I'd like to log events to "Some other event log"/"My Application Name". How do I configure that?</p>
  
  <p>Current config:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-xml prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;appender name="EventLogAppender" type="log4net.Appender.EventLogAppender" &gt;
      &lt;applicationName value="My application Name" /&gt;
      &lt;layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"&gt;
          &lt;conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" /&gt;
      &lt;/layout&gt;
  &lt;/appender&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>For an EventLogInstaller, the code would look like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>eventLogInstaller.Log = "Some other event log"; // Default "Application"
  eventLogInstaller.Source = "My application name";
  </code></pre>
