Re: how to tell if someone is logged in on shared computer?
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 ยป " 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.842Views0likes3CommentsRe: how to tell if someone is logged in on shared computer?
Hi KateG. thank you for your reply. It's quite hard for me to be very sure as many people can access the terminal via logmein and some are a couple of time zones away. The main reason I surmise the terminal has been inactive despite showing "in session" is that I kept checking by killing logmein and restarting it and it kept showing in session but then when I finally login the main app that people use and has a timed auto logoff is not signed in. It's just impractical to email a whole bunch of people to ask if they are on. Logmein does show "online since" but that seems to reflect when the machine was last rebooted. I just wish it showed when was last activity.953Views0likes5CommentsRe: how to tell if someone is logged in on shared computer?
I do notice however that this status does not auto refresh - I have to kill LogMeIn and restart it for it to refresh this status. Is there a better way to refresh this status automatically or at the click of a button? Thanks951Views0likes7Commentshow to tell if someone is logged in on shared computer?
there is a shared computer multiple users at different cities login to from time to time daily. currently logmein is set up so that when someone new logs in, the user currently on is kicked out. Is there a way to tell if someone is logged it? Is there a better way to handle such situation so the existing user does not get kicked off? thanksSolved1.4KViews0likes11Comments
