WinVNC 4.1.1 logging

[Scott C. Best]

Wez:

 	I'm sorry to have become the most difficult user of the
day...but I'm not seeing what you describe. When I add DWORD 
registry settings DebugMode=4 and DebugLevel=10 to HKLM...WinVNC3,
then all of the older versions correctly open a stdout window
when the service is started. When I add those two DWORDS to
HKLM...WinVNC4, no stdout window is created.

 	Can any other 4.1.1 user confirm this?

 	And Wez...can you provide the exact command-line sequence
that you use to generate log files? Not that you *do* generate
log files that way (I understand that you make registry settings
to do it), but if you *were* to use the command-line, can you
provide the exact details of what works for you?

thanks,
Scott
