Some third party tools may do this. I've used logon scripts, as suggested above, to keep log files. Sometimes you can tell who is logged into which PC by enumerating the sessions on a server, but this is very unreliable. The sessions come and go. A VBScript example: ========== Set objDC = GetObject("WinNT://MyServer/LanmanServer") For Each objSession In objDC.Sessions Wscript.Echo "Session: " & objSession.Name _ vbCrLf & "User: " & objSession.User _ vbCrLf & "Computer: " & objSession.Computer _ vbCrLf & "Connect Time: " & objSession.ConnectTime _ vbCrLf & "Idle Time: " & objSession.IdleTime -- Richard Mueller Microsoft MVP Scripting and ADSI Hilltop Lab - http://www.rlmueller.net --
