Dynamic Rolling Log file name

Hi all, I'm new to this forum but have been using Log4Net for a while now. I developed a log4net wrapper that enables my users to set a dynamic rolling log file name. Each individual user can customize the rolling log file name through their web.config or app.config files. The only problem I still have with this is that the default name I use in my master configuration file is also created under every application that uses it. I tried to use the following log4net configuration
Please note that I used ${TMP}\ with the file value property so this file would be created (the default rolling log file) under temporary folders. The only problem is that this only works on some machines (usually my development machine) and other machines it doesn't (production server for example). Any ideas? Should I ensure that TMP is configured as an environment variable? Thanks in advance Just2Click
