Here's something posted by Supergumby that might work for you.
<snip>
I recently implemented logon/logoff scripts via GP
------logon.cmd----
echo logon %username% %computername% %date% %time% >> \\sbs\share\logon.log
-----logoff.cmd-----
echo logoff %username% %computername% %date% %time% >> \\sbs\share\logon.log
---give me a logon.log like----
logon June VSXP Tue 22/02/2005 10:39:51.12
logoff June VSXP Tue 22/02/2005 10:41:08.45
logon MickM VSXP Tue 22/02/2005 10:42:01.07
logoff MickM VSXP Tue 22/02/2005 10:42:46.81
