+Hubert, if you have the sources, open the file which contains
+the class RemotingAppender and replace ActivateOptions ()
+with this:
+
+public override void ActivateOptions()
+{
+    base.ActivateOptions();
+    m_sinkObj = (IRemoteLoggingSink)
+Activator.GetObject(typeof(IRemoteLoggingSink), m_sinkUrl);
+}
+
+ 
+The hashtable used by log4net as "channelData" is apparently
+incompatible with mono:
+
+    IDictionary state = new Hashtable();
+    state["typeFilterLevel"] = "Full";
+    m_sinkObj = (IRemoteLoggingSink) 
+        Activator.GetObject(typeof(IRemoteLoggingSink), m_sinkUrl, state);
+
+I'm uncertain if this is correct even on MS.NET, but it
+seems to work there.
+
+Am looking at this.
