How do i get an EXACT count of actual live current users?

I have to plan for an exchange 2003 upgrade, and our Per Seat licensing
assignments that are listed in license manager are totally whacked. there's
people who don't even work at the company any more.

how can i run a report that shows like people who've logged on in the past
month...

Hello,

Good to hear from you.

According to your message, I understand that you want to have a report
which can show the users logging on to the domain in the past few months,
etc.

Unfortunately, there is no build-in tool in Windows 2000 that can get such
results. We may need to write some script codes to call ADSI interface to
query it. There is an attribute LastLogon for users in AD. We can query the
attribute of each user in the domain and compare it with current system
time to find out the unused user accounts.

Here is the reference to this attribute:
Last-Logon

schema/a_lastlogon.asp

For more information about how to code this script, you can submit it to
the Developer newsgroups. I have provided the link below:

Or you may ask for developer support:

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
