Logging Terminal Server Usage

[Tony Holland]

Hello, I have been asked to present a report on Terminal
server usage. Does anyone know of a good way of doing
this?? Right now I am using the Terminal Server GPO login and logoff script
to
apply a echo %username% %date% %time >> C:\log.txt

Then on logoff another file is created. I import both
into excel. Any 3rd party apps?? Better idea's??

Problem I am having is that i am not seeing 1 to 1 records. I do have
session timeout set to log off a user after 30 mins. I am wondering what
else could be wrong. I seem to be getting 1 to 1 records for about 70% of my
sessions. Seems very odd to me. Please help..


Thanks,

Tony Holland

Try using the Performance Logs and Alerts MMC to log the TS Metrics you want
to report on.

Another option os a 3rd party reporting application like Lakeside Software
SysTrack:
