        I log connections here at the firewall. So instead
of a rule which looks like:

ipchains -A input -d $IP_EXT/32 5900 -p tcp -j ACCEPT

        I add the two switches -y (tells the filter to look 
for the SYN flag set in the packet, which indicates a start
of connection) and -l (which logs the packet). So:

ipchains -A input -d $IP_EXT/32 5900 -p tcp -y -l -j ACCEPT

        Where $IP_EXT is the external IP-Address of my
firewall.
        Not sure if anything in VNC itself does this. If
you had a 'personal firewall' running on the same machine,
I'll bet there's something similar. Good luck!

cheers,
Scott
