Title: Can I Tell Who Is Currently Logged In?
Post by: TCM on 12 Jun 2007 11:44:52 AM
Is there a way I can see which users are currently logged into ReportNet? I am logging in with an Admin license.

Thank you,
-Todd

If you have Audit enabled and configured, there should be. You'd look for users with login time and without logout time.

Is this anywhere logged in some database table or something?

I was thinking about some table in the content store...

This "Audit" function, is it also available in 8.2? Via Configuration Manager?

Yes, it is. You just have to anable audit log with a database. Quite easy to set up. Just don't put it in the same DB as your Content Store.

Is this really the case, or do you just mean dont put it in the same schema as the content store?  We have our Audit tables as a different user(schema) in the same Oracle DB as the content store and its working fine (for the last couple of months anyway!).

In case of ORACLE, yes, different schema.

Sorry about this, was just going through some posts and saw this and wanted some clarification, which I'm sure is due to my terminology confusion.  I am using SQL Server 2000, and have my content store and audit dbs on the same server, but as separate dbs on this server.  I am assuming that this is acceptable and that you mean that content store and audit shouldn't share the same actual db as opposed to the SQL Server instance.

Again, sorry if daft question, my boss used to look after this side of things and now he's gone, I find it in my lap!

Thanks

Correct. On SQL Server 2000 they should be two separate databases within one instance.
