Hi -
Does anyone know of any software that can be installed on a workstation that
will produce a count of the number of Internet sessions run on that machine.
We would like to be able to produce some statistics on in-library Internet
use in terms of number of patrons logging-on to help justify the service.
Most of the programs I have seen are directed at corporate users who want to
monitor details of what individuals are doing. These are much too intrusive
for our purposes.
Hyper Technologies makes the Tempo add-on which has the user log-in at the
beginning of a session. If something like this that also produced a count of
sessions would be ideal.
