Monitor Terminal Server Users?

[Tristan]

I am looking for some sort of software which can monitor users and logs when
the users login and out (some sort of activity monitoring)

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Re: Monitor Terminal Server Users?

Logon and Logoff Events are recorded in the EventLog on the server,
if you have enabled auditing of security events.

It's not completely clear what else you want to monitor.

Re: Monitor Terminal Server Users?

We want to be able to run off reports of users logging in during the past
month. We also want to be able to monitor users disk usage.

How can you enable the auditing for the security events.

Thanks in advance.

I use GP LOGON/LOGOFF scripts to record %username% + %computername% +
date + time

echo LOGON %computername% - %username% %date% %time% >>
\\ServerName\Sharename\Server\%username%.log
