There is a better way to do this. The dotnet service
needs to have permissions to write to the event log. You
can do this by chaning a setting in the file mentioned
below:
Open Machine.Config (by default in
C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\CONFIG) in a
text editor, find the <processModel> section, and set the
userName attribute to "SYSTEM". This is required to
enable event logging in ASP.NET Applications -- which we
use in our custom error handling.

Website Programming", Marco Bellinaso and Kevin Hoffman.
