Computer Usage Statistics

[ezzauk]

Hi all, I have been asked to look into computer usage, i will need to provide statistics on the amount of users that have used a computer for a given time.

 

Thanks in advance

Hopefully you don't want to know the usage stats for the last 6 months because you probably haven't been monitoring them!

 

Check out http://www.edugeek.net/forums/networks/4986-user-logging-utilities-any-free-cheap-ones-recommend.html where I mention a nice dirty way of monitoring logons and creating a CSV which you could use to make pretty graphs

echo -------Log user access to Machine-------
set mytime=%TIME:~0,-3%
echo %username%,%computername%,%mytime%,%date% >> \\server\log$\userlog.txt

 

very quick n dirty add it to login scripts and logout iirc
