Hi guys
I'm trying to create an updated list of which of my AD users are logged onto
each computer - there's about 29 computers and we use hotdesking!
I'm using Windows Integrated Authentication, so I know who the user is, and
I obviously know the Workstation name they are on.
My theory is that I could put something in Session_Start to store the
User/Workstation in a database, and I could put something in Session_End to
remove that record.
Any thoughts on any possible problems with that? Also, how can I guarantee
Session_End is fired when the user closes the browser?
Cheers

dhnriverside,
That sounds like a fine plan.
Session is a timed event. The default session timeout is 20 minutes so your
session end event will fire 20 minutes after a user no longer makes contact
with the app by requesting a page / posting a page. You may change the
default session timeout.

Excuse me for my ignorant: I do not see how a computer user's loggin on to
his workstation could have something to do with your ASP.NET app's
Session_Start, if he does not start IE (or other browser) and go to your
ASP.NET app. Unless you have some login script running on each station that
send request to your ASP.NET app whenver a user logs on.
So, it is just very simple to write a loggon script to catch user logon
time, user name, computer name and save the infomation to database. This
script can be enforced by AD/Windows Group Policy, so that no user can
bypass it.
Then in you ASP.NET, you only need a very simple page to browse the user
logon data from the database.

Hello
I have a small program that I've created to generate accounting
statements out of our policy managment system.
The first part of the process is selecting the customer to create the
statement for. In this process the application queries the database,
returns a dataset of just customer names, and their customer code that
is displayed in a list. This results in something like 200 names.

I want to create a webpage that updates say, every 5 minutes (easy), that

Any ideas?
I've seen this done on an antivirus program, where it pops up on the server

Hi,
When a user logs into our site, we create a session variable to denote
the session is active and another to denote who is logged in. Once
the user closes the browser and re-opens it, the session is destroyed
and the variables are gone.
How can I keep the session alive for 24 hours even if the user closes
and re-opens the browser?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
