willichan Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Is there something that needs to be done differently to read the Security log entries? Running the following test script gives me a success message for each log, except for Security. #include <eventlog.au3> testit("Application") testit("Security") testit("Setup") testit("System") testit("Forwarded Events") testit("Hardware Events") Func testit($log) Local $hEventLog = _EventLog__Open("", $log) If $hEventLog = 0 Then MsgBox(0, "err", "Unable to open " & $log & " log") Else MsgBox(0, "OK", $log & " openned successfully") _EventLog__Close($hEventLog) EndIf EndFunc ;==>testit I need to be able to produce a report of who logged in to a set of PCs over a period of time, and how long they were on before logging off. I don't want to have to manually scan through the security logs each time to do it. I am running this on Windows 7 Pro N SP1 systems that are on a domain. I have tried both stable (3.3.8.1) and the latest beta (3.3.9.21).

Solution BrewManNH Posted September 23, 2013 Solution Share Posted September 23, 2013 If you're an admin, use #RequireAdmin at the top of your script. if you're not an admin, you can't access it. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

willichan Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 I can't believe it was that simple. Thanks BrewManNH.
