I do know that there is not a function built into 4.5 that will display the number of currently logged on users. After looking at the audit.log file I was wondering if this might be a way to get a count users that logged on.

Would doing
HTML Code:
grep "cmd=Auth" audit.log 
then sorting out the status "INFO"
give me a good count of the number of logins for any specified time?

Anyone know if this is a way to get a count users that have successfully logged on?

Thanks
Vince

That's gonna be a lot of work to keep track of currently logged on that way...and it's difficult when a session ends etc...you'd essentially be making a tiny database...
5.0 has got the feature you need though (see pic)

ZCS 5.0.1 is out!

Thanks for the reply but unfortunately upgrading is not an option until later this year since we just rolled it out to production a week ago for all our students. So I was hoping this would be one way to report how many users have successfully logged in on any given day.

Thanks
