- Unfortunately you are correct Carl.. there is no consistent place to look at
- present to determine this information.. but I believe you can be assured that
- it will be in either the accounting file or the auditing logs at the very least
- I am not sure if DEC has deceided which mechanism it likes better. I believe
- that the auditing approach is going to be the recommended answer/solution
- to this problem, since this mechanism seems more natural to the problem that
- is being solved here.
- I wish that DEC would do some work in providing some documented
- callouts to the loginout image as well.
