I am using elmah to log files in MVC.
here is the setting for the logPath in web.congif file but i want to store the logs on the UNC path.(Network path)

I tried directly using UNC path but it does not work. eg \\NetworkPath\ErrorLogs\Errors

<elmah>
  <errorLog type="Elmah.XmlFileErrorLog, Elmah" logPath="~/App_Data/XML_Logs" />
</elmah>

What am i doing wrong.
