Delphi would do the same job. (Dunno which language you're using)   Other ways I can think of:   - Registry -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\...\Run (needs to be done on every server you want to include in you're log-file) - Registry -> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\...\Run (needs to be done in the profile of every admin if they have roaming profiles) - Autostart-Group of "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\AutoStart" (on every server) - Autostart-Group of "C:\Documents and Settings\<admin>\Start Menu\AutoStart" (for every admin) - MS GINA - use your proggie as the admin's system shell and make your program run explorer.exe - change the logon script for the admins (create one if there is none) - use the windows scheduler (there is an option to make a task run after login)   -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Im Auftrag von Fleenor Todd Gesendet: Donnerstag, 2.

This way you can even let your program decide who is allowed to log in. There have already been some mails about ms-gina programming. This way you are able to do some actions right after the login process or just before that.   But here again a link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/security/Security/winlogon_and_gina_reference.asp     -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Im Auftrag von Fleenor Todd Gesendet: Donnerstag, 2. Mai 2002 17:31 An: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Betreff: [ActiveDir] Running progam automatically at logon I am looking for suggestions on the best place to run a program that monitors Administrator personell logging into Domain controllers.   This program asks the user to type in the reason for the login session.   This could be run from a login script or a Group Policy, but I'd rather not depend on either of those.   It could also be placed into the RUN registery key for windows.   What are some other ways to run a program just after someone has logged in? I'd rather this run just before the login script if possible.   Thanks for any suggestions!
