Where are the logs of the gnome vino-server? [closed]

Question

I've a machine with gnome & ubuntu maverick. Desktop sharing enabled. I want to know who as connected (the sharing is password protected)

Where are stored the logs of vino server, if they are any?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Actually, you can get logs with vino.

Write a shell script for execute vino-server, redirecting it's output to a file. Something like this:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/lib/vino/vino-server --sm-disable 2>&1 | tee -a ~/.local/share/vino/log

Now, go to gnome menu bar "System -> Preferences -> Startup applications", uncheck "Remote Desktop" and add a new one. Give it a name, like "Remote Desktop w/Log" and select the shell script with the "Browse" button. Save it and log out. The next time you log in you should have something in ~/.local/share/vino/log

I used this in Debian 6.0 Squeeze with GNOME 2.30

Answer 2

dpkg -L vino doesn't show anything created in /var/log so i guess there are no logs.
