Doug,

First, I would not place much faith in the logon/logoff events in W2K. I
once tried to use them to determine user session times. I discovered that
528's are pretty believable but 538's may get logged many hours later or not
at all. That was long ago, before UPHClean. Maybe that would have helped.

By chance, are these logons via Nfuse or WI? I've seen similar behavior
under those circumstances. I always assumed that this was the initial logon
that verified the user credentials and displayed the appropriate published
apps. Another logon event might show up at the Citrix server when it
actually hosts your app.

  Can anyone tell me why I would get these two security event log id
everytime I log onto a ts with w2k on it?
  I looked up the events at event id web and it says 528 is a logon (this is
good) and 538 is a log off (bad) I am not logging off just on.
