As far as I know Win95 does not have logging system like Winnt event logging, hence nothing will happen automatically.

However, if your Win95 is part of Winnt domain, administrator of that domain can set up group policies. One such policy would be that access to your Win95 computer is denied without valid password. Default Win95 setting allows that users press escape on logon screen and start using PC in local mode, but this policy prevents it.

Administrator can also set logging on the server that will log every user's logon/logoff.

Administrator can also set a logon script that could do various things like adding entries in a file of her/his choice.
