Issue/Introduction

Does the application generate any error messages/logs that contain PII data, sensitive business data, or information useful for identifying the host system? 
-- The application should be configured so that it does not divulge such information.

Resolution

Log files do contain hostnames and port numbers.

Broker log files list the name of the client from where the connection is initiated to the harvest server.
This is logged in for every client connection.

Additionally, hgetusg(Command line) lists the client name of the users logged in. Client name is the host name in this case.
Note that this command can be executed by only Harvest Admins.
