Hi

Did you read this part of my script:

' point to user's home folder, or another common share
' where the users have write access, UNC path is allowed also
sDateLogFile = "C:\LastLoggedOn_" & oWshNet.Username & ".log"

If you change it to use a location on a central server, it will
be the domain logon time and not PC.

But if you absolutely want to enumerate and connect to all domain
controllers, below is modified version of the script in this link:
http://www.rlmueller.net/Last%20Logon.htm

Note that you risk that a lot of extra time is added to the logon time.
For me it takes 40 seconds to run the script below. This is avoided if
you use the first script I gave you.

' Because the lastLogon attribute is not replicated, every Domain

' Controllers. The AdsPath of each Domain Controller is saved in an
' array. Then, for each Domain Controller, ADO is used to search the
' copy of Active Directory on that Domain Controller for all user
' objects and return the lastLogon attribute. The lastLogon attribute is
' a 64-bit number representing the number of 100 nanosecond intervals
' since 12:00 am January 1, 1601. This value is converted to a date. The
' last logon date is in UTC (Coordinated Univeral Time). It must be
' adjusted by the Time Zone bias in the machine registry to convert to
' local time.
