What kind of layout do you use for the socket appender? If you use a pattern layout, you structure the message so that it includes an ID, prehaps by using MDC? XML layout also includes MDC data. How do you have this configured in java and .net? > I would gladly contribute to this, but my skills in php are rather modest, > so may be it could be picked up by more profound developers.
