thanks, CDUCC, for the suggestion.
I just tried the dashboard but I also find it to be unreliable for 2 reasons
1) everytime I check it, it keeps saying "The host computer keyboard and mouse are currently active. Initiate chat with user » " But that I think is me. When I click on the house icon, it asks me to login. I'm thinking that login triggers this result.
2) In the pane bottom right showing "most recent accesses", that is also unreliable. The first time I looked at it today, it only showed that I tried to login based on the IP address shown. However clearly on a couple time today when I got on someone's opened apps & work were on the screen despite that pane not showing anyone being logged in.
any further help would be appreciated. thanks
Patrick.
Hi pl2024,
1) In my experience, the top of the Dashboard has been very reliable, as long as you haven't used "Remote Control" in the last 5-10 minutes. Once you've done that, then yes, it will say it's active if you moved the mouse while in a remote session.
2) The "Most Recent Accesses" panel will always have at least one listing -- your own -- plus any other recent connections.

It will tell you if there was user activity either remotely, or locally. I usually use it to verify that I'm not going to interrupt a local user.
thank you Carl
Does that status at top of dashboard only show activity through Logmein? I mean if someone was physically on the terminal instead would it show "keyboard & mouse are currently active"? thanks
