( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hello Monks! I'm trying to come up with a good way to monitor users that log into one of our nodes each day, we have 8 nodes a user may log into and our user list is about 250. I want to keep a tally on when and where a user logged in on a particular day regardless of which node they used. I.E even if they logged into 3 nodes for hours on 07/20/2001 the user is only charged for one day. Visa/versa if a user logged into one node per day for a minute for three days they are billed for three days.

The closest thing I can come up with is using the event viewer "security log" but as many may know this is not a flat text file, so parsing it may be impossible. I really only need the user, date, and node. Eventually the stats would be posted on our web showing the power users and nodes used most often. One quick note. The users use terminal services client to attach to a node via our domain controller. I hope you guys can point me in right direction THANKS!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
