Hello Scott. You wrote: > what they *want* > to see in a "VNC log" is one entry per connection: I found that WinVNC.log file doesn't provide necessary data always.
For example, I made only VNC scan port number. I found in the log file only 2 strings: - D:\ORL\vss\winvnc\vncSockConnect.cpp : accepted connection from 192.168.1.225 - D:\ORL\vss\winvnc\vncClient.cpp : client connected : 192.168.1.225 (1) I can't understand that above connection wasn't success. I can think that above connection continue. I'll research that problem. I'll try to use another *debug level* of WinVnc registry settings. (But as result of big debug level, WinVnc log file will be very big). - Igor ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott C.
