Do you care if they log in to Exchange only or in AD at all?
AD has two fields, lastlogon and lastlogontimestamp. These fields are set when the user authenticates to AD. Lastlogon is set per domain controller, and lastlogontimestamp (new in AD 2003) is replicated throughout the entire domain so you always get the most current version. Just LDAP these fields, convert the number (it's in that insane 1601 format), and you are set! Last Logon in exchange is iffy for me. I know if you look at someone's calendar it counts as a logon to the mailbox. From: Paul Everett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 4:32 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Looking for Last Logon date in Exchange I'm looking to determine when the last time our users have actually looked at their email, either thru Outlook or OWA. In Exchange System Manager\Mailbox Store\Mailboxes it shows a column header for "Last Logon Time" and "Last Logoff Time", but these are all showing the same time, about 10 minutes prior to me logging onto the Exchange Server to view this information (give or take a minute). It seems like I use to be able to go here and see that people hadn't logged on for months. We have 250 accounts and not all are working at the same time much less logging on (and off) at the same time. All but three users show last logon by NT Authority\System, but the only difference it those accounts is that there is no log-off time. Is there another way for me to find what I'm looking for in Exchange? Exchange 2003 in a 2003 AD Domain, running Sunbelt Messaging Ninja. Thanks, Paul Everett IS Dept.
