Audit User Login on Server 2008.
-
when you look in the logs on the server, are they they same event ID's as you see on the Windows 7 machines for logons?
If they are and if when running the script locally on that same server, I'd say your script is broke or MS has a different location your script needs to look than on Windows 7.

@Dashrender Right, on Windows 7 there is a System Event, and a Security Event. Windows Server 2008 does not have the same System event that I can see.

But did you find the Security event in the logs on the 2008 server manually? once you do that will tell you the correct Event ID and you can adjust your scripts.
If you don't see the Events in the logs when you look manually, then you have to fix that first.

@Dashrender I get that. The problem is when I look at the raw Security Events there are too many to filter though because every single security check on the server makes a logon event, not just a terminal Login. In Windows 7, there is the nice logon event in System Event. I don't see anything that nice and pretty in Server 2008, that is why I am asking for a better way to do it.

You can apply a filter in event viewer

528 for successful log-on, type 10 is Remote Interactive

This is Server 2008. http://windowsitpro.com/systems-management/q-how-can-i-find-windows-server-2008-event-ids-correspond-windows-server-2003-eve
Not Seeing how to filter on Type.

It's still Type 10 for Remote on 4624. You have to edit the xml

Figured it out!
