Is there a way to see,view record the users log off time and date? This is to verify that our users are logging off at the end of day.

Any help or suggestions are appreciated,

Nate

It depends...

What operating systems are your users running on their desktops?
What type of network operating system are you using?
Have the security auditing features of your operating system(s) been enabled?
Is your network set up with a domain environment or with a workgroup peer-to-peer environment?

The specific the information you can give us, the better (and more precise) answer we can give back.

All workstations are running W2K.
Network OS is W2K.
Domain environment with AD.
Yes I have enabled Auditing but it does not show the users logoff event in event viewer. It only shows computer objects logging out. I am looking for a utility thatwill give me a report/doc that will list: username, last login, and last logout. Something like that. We would like a daily report of users not logging off at the end of the day. If you need more info please ask.

Or is there a way to report which users did not logoff there workstations at the end of the day? I tested it out on a workstation and did not report to event viewer. I enabled auditing, set "Automatically logoff users when login time expires" to enable. When it passed the time it did not report anything to server event viewer.
