Is 680 the only security event to find out when someone has logged on in the
morning?

Is there an automated way to find out when someone has logged on and logged
off over a 3 week period?

Windows 2003 Server.

Thanks.

Bryce.

You would need to enable auditing of "logon" events and track usage for
users in question via the local security logs of the computers they logon
to. There are third party programs that can help automate event log tracking
such as SELM that I believe is free to try. When you enable auditing of
account logon events for DCs it will only show when a user logos onto the
domain. When you audit logon events on DCs it will show when users/computers
access a share on the DCs such as sysvol share for GP processing and that
will generate a ton of events in the security log for the DCs.
