Is it possible to keep a log of shadow sessions.

Some users are reporting screen flashes similar to when a shadow session is started. I have turned off the need for users to comfirm a shadow request to make it easier to support users, but these screen flashes are worrying.

Many thanks.
 
Are you using Metaframe 1.8 or XP? If you are using XP, and you chose to allow shadowing during setup, then you can right-click on your server in the CMC, go to the "Metaframe Settings" tab and place a check in the box labeled "Enable shadow loggin on this server" and your shadow events will appear in the event viewer.

There are no shadowing logging features with 1.8, sorry. I would think about turning notification back on and see if anyone gets a message requesting permission to shadow, then I'd start looking at my fellow administrators. You won't catch who's doing it, and you will now have to request permission, but you may aleviate the problem at least.

Thanks.

May have to do what you suggest.
