Script to send an email when specific student logs on?

[sidewinder]

Ive already got a script that logs usernames and pc names when they log on, but I am trying to track one particular student, and would like to be able to be emailed whenever he logs on, so I can monitor him

 

Is there an easy way to do this?

If you have the messenger service enabled why not use a network message?

You can also use BMail to send mail from a login script.

or Blat

Yep, I like bmail. Blat is a bit more complex but possibly more versatile.

In the student's security context? Well I just hope you've whitelisted all your apps and scripts.

SendEmail

 

Works for me

 

BTW - using this I created a HTA that will email their message to us in ICT Support (recording Username & Comp name) - So they do not have to open their webmail / outlook etc

I have a vb project that sends a silent email via MAPI

bmail seemed the easiest to set up and it works great

Thanks Geoff and everyone else
