Last Login Times - User and Computers 2

[amajacma]

Is there a way to find out the last time when a computer or a user was logged onto the system? We have Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 desktops.

Thanks!

Annie

You could also take a look at the vbscript section. There are a lot of answer to your question.

In a Windows 2000 domain, you would need to poll every domain controller to be sure you have the right information. In Windows 2003 this is replicated by default.

Also, remember that if a user walks away and LOCKS their desktop, this does not reset the last logon time then next time the user returns and UNLOCKS their destkop.

I have used the following script from Winnt Magazine to do this:

Save the following text into file userlogin.vbs

' List last logon times
' 2001-03-27 John Savill, Jakob Hussfelt

On Error Resume Next
sEnterDCs = "SAVILLTECH,SAVILLNT02"
sObjects = Split(sEnterDCs, ",")
Set oDomain = GetObject("WinNT://" & sObjects(0))
oDomain.Filter = Array("User")
WScript.Echo "Showing last login times of accounts from: " & oDomain.Name & vbNewLine
For Each oDomainItem In oDomain
sUsrLogin = oDomainItem.LastLogin
If UBound(sObjects) >= 1 Then
For ii = 1 To UBound(sObjects)
Set oUsr = GetObject("WinNT://" & sObjects(ii) & "/" & oDomainItem.Name & ",user")
If oUsr.LastLogin > sUsrLogin Then sUsrLogin = oUsr.LastLogin
Next
End If
WScript.Echo "Username: " & Left(oDomainItem.Name & Space(22),22) & "Last login: " & FormatDateTime(sUsrLogin)
Next

In line 'set oDomain = GetObject("WinNT://SAVILLTECH")' you should change SAVILLTECH to your domain name.

To run type the following:

C:\> cscript userlogin.vbs
