docker daemon logs are missing

I am looking for the docker-daemon logs, the ones that display information between the docker client and the docker daemon.

According to this answer: Where is the Docker daemon log?

The log is supposed to be in /var/log/docker.log for boot2docker (I am running docker on windows).

However, boot2docker is deprecated and replaced by docker-machine.

Regardless, I do not have the directory or log file listed above. I do not even have a /var directory.

After creating one the above log file in the specified path, the daemon did not even write to the docker.log file as well.

Any ideas?

When you use boot2docker or docker-machine you first need to ssh into that VM with docker-machine ssh <machineName>. There you will find the /var/log/ folder.
