Hello,
LogMX is able to open remote logs (on any remote server) using protocols SCP, SFTP, and HTTP (use menu "File" > "Open" > and select the protocol at the top of the dialog). Of course, the server from which you want to read logs must run a SCP, SFTP, or HTTP server.
If you only want to give them a remote access and you want them to use their login/password, you don't need what comes next.
If you want to allow your developers to access some remote logs without giving them the password, here is an idea:

If you want to allow your developers to access some remote logs without giving them the password, here is an idea:
- Start LogMX yourself
- Open at least one file on each server: LogMX will ask you your login and password: type them and check "Save password"
- Once all files are opened, quit LogMX
- All your login/passwords are saved (and encrypted) in the file "config/logmx.properties": simply copy this file to any LogMX instance for which you want to allow access to your servers (these instances won't need your password again)

Yes, this is what I meant. You will have to send them this file, and each developer will have to: exit LogMX, copy this file in LogMX "config" directory, and re-start LogMX.how will developers copy the file logmx.properties : is it that i have to send them the file and they will save in their folder and then they can view the logs.
I don't think I clearly understood. LogMX is a very small application that can be run on Linux/Windows/Mac, and its "instance" consists in a directory containing a start script "logmx.sh". For example, if a developer installed LogMX in /home/john/app/LogMX, he will simply have to copy your file in "/home/john/app/LogMX/config"Also how is this possible in linux environment , is their any url to access the instance.
thnx so much

In fact, LogMX stores a pasword for a {host + user + protocol}, not only for a file. For example, if you already opened a SFTP file "/mylogs/log.txt" as "john" on server "myhost", you won't have to retype your password for any file or folder on this SFTP server (ex: no password for "john" to open "/app/logs/app.log" on SFTP server "myhost")
