I would suggest running a "network monitor" through an entire VNC session

As far as I know, nothing bad will happen. But it depends on how a
connect Xvnc session behaves with its logfiles. That is, does it only
open the file when it needs to append it? Or, does it keep the file
open while the VNC session is connected.

Granted, this means you need either access to the firewall device or you'll
