    Hi everyone,

    Currently, I am using Event Viewer to see who logged in and out and the report is really messy and full other info. Has anyone created a script that maybe writes the Remote App usage or simply Login / Logout of users to a text file or SQL file? or better yet has a page page to display the analytic?

    Or is there another tool in Windows 2008 R2 Server that I can use to find out what users logged in and out during the past month or so?

    It really appreciate it if you can share it with me.

    Thanks

    Happy New Year ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I don't see anything related to RemoteApps reporting. I only see Login/Log-off reports and it gives me PSSecurity exception: http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Get-LogonLogoff-Times-and-3acf7d62/view/Discussions

    I appreciate it if you can share any scripts you may have come by.

    I don't think anyone here can tell what you are asking.

    What RemoteApps are you talking about?

    In order to query the security log you must be a full administrator.

    Most who come here are either scripters or are learning to script. 

    If you have a specific question about a script then post the script with your question and complete error message details.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I am pretty sure the best way to get the RDweb info is from the web server logs.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I am the admin and I do have Even Viewer at my disposal. But I am wondering if there is a nice simple report that show login/logout and number of times a Remote App was used. I'd rather not re-invent the wheel if it is already done.

    I do not think you will find that.

    Did you try searching for an event viewer reporting app.   The apps get registered in the EL but I believe you need to turn on auditing.

    Try posting in the WS2008 admin forums.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    1- What is "auditing"? can you please shed some light?

    2- You are right, I need a "web server" log parser and an "event viewer" log parser.
