Simon, There have been a number of fixes to the File & RollingFile appenders since 1.2.8. If you cannot upgrade the latest version you may want to consider taking the latest source for 2 appenders, back porting them where necessary, and building them into a new dll. You could then uses these appenders with the old 1.2.8 build of log4net, just specify the assembly qualified type name in the logging configuration.
