How do I find out when user XXX logged in+out on last Tuesday? Event log entry possible?

How do I find out when user XXX logged in+out on last Tuesday? Event log entry possible?

 

Is there a way to find out when user XXX logged in and out from WinXP on e.g. last Tuesday ?

 

I could imagine that there is an event log entry written.

However I do not see it. Do I have to enable "User logon/logoff event log records" somewhere ?

 

If these kind of events are not logged: Is there another way (work around) to write

(automatically) event log records (in the future) when users log off?

 

How can I (as normal user) write easily log records into the system log (e.g. from command line)?
