I run windows active directory server 2003 on my network to manage my LAN systems and users.

Do I need to enable Audit Policy on GPolicy?

Can you hint me on how to go about it. The script to pull out the data is not included in your famous logon Script.

Windows Settings

As for grabbing the data with script, check out the Microsoft Scripting Center for examples.

be warned that enabling auditing will fill your logs quickly.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
