RE: Terminal Service logging

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi Netnathan,

Thank you for posting in SBS newsgroup.

If you would like to check the real-time TS sessions, we can user Terminal
Server Manager. To do that:

1. Click Start | Programs | Administrative Tools | Terminal Service Manager.
2. Click <Server Name> in the left pane, and then you can see detailed
information in the right pane.

If you want the real time logging for the Terminal service, I suggest that
you use WinStation Monitor to get the real-time status of the user name,
domain, IP address, session ID, and connection status of currently
logged-on users. For more detailed information, please refer to the KB
article:

320190 HOW TO: Use WinStation Monitor to Monitor Terminal Services Client
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=320190

If you want to check who and when log on the TS server, you can use the
"Audit logon events" to audit the "logon locally" events since users should
have the "logon locally" permission to log on the TS server. If the TS
server is a member server, you can configure the local security policy. You
can refer to the following KB article:

174073 Auditing User Authentication
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=174073

Hope it helps and I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Crina Li (MSFT)
