A typical Microsoft configuration would have more than one domain controller. In large organizations, you could have 20 of them. Not all of their data is necessarily synchronized (and clients contact DC's pretty much randomlly, either globally in the org, or within a Site, if that is configured "right"), and even when they do, this is not always in real time, there could be significant delays. Let's assume you manage to know that someone logged in. How do you know he logged out? If he turned off his computer, will he remain logged in forever? Points to take... (maybe you're trying to find the wrong solution to the problem, which I don't even know what is it?) -- Shimi
