Thank you to everyone that responded.

After reading through the Technical Q&A QA1133 and Technical Note TN2083 (as
well as all of your responses) I decided to use the utmpx API's for this
application.  I like the concept of dividing users and system functions into
separate user agents and system daemons, but this particular situation just
didn't warrant the extra overhead.  So, I decided to keep it simple (KISS)
and just do a quick loop with the getutxent function.

I also looked at SCDynamicStoreCopyConsoleUser (which is the simplest way to
do this) but QA1133 states "...likely that they will be formally deprecated
in a future version of Mac OS X", where as the utmpx API is new to 10.5
which implies a potentially longer life. 

Thanks again,
Tom
