Dan you can use Group policies to set the
audit option on those computers. Then by reviewing the Security logs in event
viewer you will be able to see when users log on and log off. You can export
the log file as a csv and manipulate it in Excel to get the data you need.

Good luck! Hope this helps.

   The recent
survey about computer labs got me to thinking.  I would like to be able to
keep track of how many students are using the lab each day, and how long they
are logged on.  I would think it would be fairly simple to track when
someone logged on, when they logged off, and what computer they were on. 
Does anyone know of software that will do this on a Windows 2003 server?
