log-files

Hi,

I've looked everywhere for a solution to this. Is there any way to turn off this logging in VNC?

VNC seems to be logging some large updates I'm doing in mysql and taking up my whole hard drive space. The only way to get rid of the log file is to reboot, which I would prefer not to have to do if possible.

Cheers
