This could help you, although it isn't clear when users are logging out.

Go to admin, audit log and search for 'Users logged in'. Check screenshot.

@Nagios I'm not sure if it's technically possible to add an audit event when a user has logged out?

You could also look into the apache access log, i.e.

Code: Select all

grep username= /var/log/httpd/access_log

In my Apache log, I cannot see who is logged in 'now' but I can see who has been logged in at some point.

Code: Select all

cat /var/log/httpd/access_log | awk '{print $3}' | sort -u
Thanks.

Thanks, Steve! I thought it would be helpful to see various users in the log with the exact date/time.

I have filed a feature request for this, ID 7498.

At this point, I cannot provide a forecast as it's in the developers hands.

Do you mind if I close this thread out as the FR has been created?
