Logging how much time user was active over the day

[Guest getanin]

Hello,

 

I want to created script that will log and calculate how much time user was

connected to terminal server and how much of that time user do something,

meaning I must exclude from active_time idle_time. I found command query

user that will return me how much time user has been idle.

My process:

1. query user - query terminal server users every minute and write that info

into file

2. If variable user1 exist and idle_time is dot don't increment variable

user1_idle

3. If variable user1 exist and idle_time is not dot increment variable

user1_idle for 1 (and every time it parse next log file increment for one)

4. If variable user1 exist and idle_time is dot stop increment variable

user1_idle

5. If variable user1 exist and idle_time is not dot increment variable

user1_idle

6. do this loop until variable user1 exist

7. now we must calculate active_time, we will do that

(logoff_time-logon_time)-idle_time

 

Is this correct algorithm for this problem? Is there any easier solution, or

maybe program that can monitor user time by idle_time also?

You have third party solution at http://www.terminalserviceslog.com

 

Data that is captured:

Connection start (date and hour)

User

Duration

IDLE time

Active time

Disconnected session time

Connection end (date and hour)

Status
