Scott,

VNC 4's logging is not broken.

By default, Connections events are logged to the Application Event Log when
running in Service-Mode, and to the console (Command-Prompt) when running in
User-Mode.  To cause connections and errors to be logged to a file when in
Service-Mode, just set the Log registry entry to
*:file:0,Connections:file:30

VNC Server 4 is a console application when run in User-Mode - it doesn't
"create" a console window, it writes output to the console it was run from
or (unless you start it with -noconsole) creates one on startup.

Regards,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
