Hi,

if you check the System Status scorecard, session metrics record amongst other things "number of sessions", which is the number of currently active user sessions.

Info Center article is here:

in my screenshot here for instance 77 current sessions in progress, and the high watermark (since last reset) was 179.   A little high for an authoring environment which should prompt some investigation for me!

All the best,

Simon


ps. if you're looking for "who" is on there specifically (rather than how many), then the samples audit package gives you a report you can run for this.
