Determining or trapping IP addressess of viewers connected

[James Weatherall]

Hi Robert,

VNC Enterprise & Personal Editions add a Connections item to the tray menu
for VNC Server, which lists all current connections, their access rights,
and the credentials of the connected use.

All VNC Servers log "Connections: ..." messages for each incoming
connection, which allows you to see the TCP connections being made to them.
The latest VNC Enterprise & Personal Edition servers additionally log when
the connected user authenticates themselves, so you can distinguish
connection attempts from actual accesses more easily.

Regards,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
