Hi,

Is there a way I can log remote desktop session so I can review a historical
account of who logged in when? I thought maybe I could "turn it on" somewhere
but I couldn't find it. Then I thought I maybe doing it already I just don't
know where to look for it.

Again, Is there a way I can log the remote desktop sessions so I can review
a historical account of who logged in when?

Mike

If you enable auditing of security events, you will see all logon
and logoff events in the Security tab of the EventLog on the TS.

You can filter and export these events once a month to a tab-
delimited textfile for further processing.

Or you could make your own, very simple logon report by adding a
line to your TS-specific login script:

echo %username% %clientname% %date% %time% >> logon.log
