Connected users list

How to get the list of the users connected to my system?

Hello Mircea,

again - how are they connected.

if using a file share - it's in computer management -> shared folders ->
sessions

this information can be obtained via WMI (System.Management)

Hi,

My computer is part of a LAN.
Other users can logon (remotly) my system. I want to detect them.

The WMI on XP has some classes such as LoggedOnUser and LogonSession which
give the currenly loggedon users.
But this classes does not exist in WMI on W2k.

Did you mean the user connect to your windows 2000 server with terminal
Service? If so, maybe you can check the terminal Service manager to check
the logon user list.

Hello Mircea,

you could monitor the security log for logon events...

this can be established by the EventLog class or WMI

for an example on how to monitor the event log using .net:
