Logging and status

This screen provides various details about the user activity on the LINDY KVM IP.
Note: The log has a maximum capacity of 1000 event lines. After 1000 entries,
the oldest entries are overwritten. If log data are important to your installation,
ensure a regular backup procedure or use the Syslog Server IP Address option to
send log information automatically to another system.

To get here

1 Using VNC viewer or a browser, log on as the ‘admin’ user.
2 Click the ‘Configure’ button in the top right corner.
3 Click the ‘Logging and Status’ option.

To copy and paste the log
You can copy the information listed within the log and paste it into another
application.

1 While viewing the log screen, press Ctrl and C, to copy the data into the

clipboard.

2 In a text application (i.e. Word, WordPad, Notepad) press Ctrl and V, or right

mouse click and ‘Paste’.

Syslog Server IP Address
Logging information can optionally be sent, as it occurs, to a separate system
using the standard Syslog protocol. Enter the IP address of a suitable system in
