Hello,

I have an issue I need some help with. I created in a login script to track usage:
Echo %DATE% - %TIME% %USERNAME% logged in %COMPUTERNAME% >>\\%servername%\userlog\%username%.txt

The issue that we are having is when users connect to the VPN, then they remote into their workstations. We just want to track the VPN logon\logoff times separately. How can I just track the VPN usage? This is through Windows Server 2008 R2.

 
I would think this would be tracked on your VPN gateway device. You maybe able to see if the VPN software logs the connections somewhere o the client. There could be some complicated things you could do like monitor the processes and log when the vpn client starts and stops but that is prone to break.

Windows Haiku:

Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.
