It there a log file that would show users who have
connected or disconnected to a server on a given day? If
so, I'm looking to read this information into a custom
application. Thanks
 
Hi Steve,
You would need to do Security Auditing on the server Objects to get
this. Depending on what you need you can log in the Security Event logs.

FYI you can dump the event logs to txt file using Dumpel.exe from the
resource then parse the files for your app as needed. The reason I and
Dumpel in the mix is you can use it to make this all automagic for your app.

Hope this Helps!
