I want to be able to monitor if a certain user is logged in at the console on a server and flag red if it isn't.
I'm running my BBWin client in central mode but I can't find anything in the documentation to tell me if I can alert to users status
Can anyone help?

Helps if I reply to the list...
Hi Neil,
I wanted to do the reverse to that, monitor and go red whenever someone is logged in (the reason being that no-one should ever need to login to our domain controllers and if they do I want to know about it). But alas I couldn't find any way of monitoring this either, the who test just seems to be a simple report who's logged in without any logic behind it.

I don't know if there might be a way to do that on the client side, but you could probably whip something up on the server. See what you get back from this command:
server/bin/xymon localhost "xymondboardhost=server.domain.comtest=who fields=msg"
It should be the full text of the message that was delivered for the "who" column. Once you get that text, you could write a script to process it and issue alerts.
