I suspect that some users are loggin onto some computers. The problem is I don't know who. I do know a group of computers that they may be logging into. I am sure there is a way to tell who is accessing which computer and at what time, but I don;t know how. Any help is appreciated.

It is hard to tell who is actually logon onto the system because the bad guy is not really using his/her account. they are using other people account that for sure in your case. MOst people do not keep their user account or password secrete. The best way to protect yourself is to protect your confidential info. with strict permission.

First what oOS are you using - If unix type the suggestion to use the daemon is very good and yoiu can get the time and current user and machine that was used. If NT start the auditor up on the machines and begin limiting the times and users capability and change their passwords at login or force them to see you about the change - this can be done under the unix system as well.

You have to ensure all users and computer are running different name . Then run a software to track each machine , most likely a deamon .From there you can login from your machine , run the deamon interface and you will see exactly what the user is seeing.
