Question

I am searching for the best way for track user on a web site based on asp.net.
We are using log4net to log some business actions (enter on this page, click on button, etc.). But for multiple users, log file cannot be read easily.

So I need add a property ‘UserName’ on the config file like this :

 <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] - %property{UserName} - %-5level  - %logger - %message%newline"/>

Do you hae any idea about the way to set ‘UserName’ ?

thanks for your help
