I have a jenkins master-slave setup through JNLP connections. Everything is working fine except I can not find any logs on the slave nodes. There are logs on the master in "$JENKINS-HOME/logs/slaves" but none on the slave node.

Can you tell me on which path the log is or if there is even logging on the slave node?

Thank you very much!

Jenkins stores all logs on master only, that's why you cannot find any log on nodes.
