How to Get Active Login Times for Each User On One Server?

[Guest Will]

Is there any application provided by Windows Server 2003 that would let us

do accounting for how many hours a user spends *actively* logged into a

specific server? We expect users to come into the server by RDP, and we

do NOT want to capture the time they spend logged in but disconnected. We

are only concerned with doing time accounting for how many hours per two

week period they spend in an active login.

 

If there are third party applications to do this kind of time accounting, I

would appreciate the reference.

The only thing I am aware that may provide some info is a piece of freeware

available (But not supported or written) on Microsoft's website. It is

called LimitLogin, I don't think it will do what you want but give it a look

over.
