I have an employee that is constantly lying about what time she comes into
the office. Is there a way to track what time someone logs onto their
computer? And can you keep a history so when this person logs off for the
night it doesn't get rid of that orignal log in time?

If you enable auditing of logon events on her computer in Local Security
Policy it will show type 2 logon and logoff events that may be helpful. Make
sure that the time on her computer is accurate and if she is a local
administrator she could clear the security log on her computer if she knows
how to. You also want to make sure that she can not change the system time.
By default regular users can not but local administrators and power users
can. user rights are seen in Local Security Policy/local policies/user
rights. --- Steve
