Hi,

I am using a Windows XP multiuser system. I need to know the details of
all users who have logged in and logged out of the system along with
the IP Address from which they have logged in. Is there any way that
can be done? Are there any specific files that store all these data??.

Regards,

About the best you can do natively is to look in the security log via Event
Viewer making sure that auditing of logon events is enabled in Local
Security Policy [secpol.msc] which I believe it is by default. You may not
see the IP address of the computer where the user is doing the logon from
but it should show the computer name. If an IP is a must you would need to
look at firewall logs of which you can enable auditing in the Windows
Firewall. Look for IP traffic at the same timestamp as the logon event in
the security log.
