Our government contractors are required to account for computer usage on their contracts. They typically use their own accounting programs that run upon login and logout. (VMS accounting is typically not enough to satisfy the government auditors.) DECwindows workstations present a problem for them with new ways of using local and remote resources. Is anyone addressing this issue? Thanks, Kris.

As time goes by people won't be using "computers" they'll be using "networks". Metering and reporting all usage of all resources on a network-wide basis would likely have a material impact on the network itself. Perhaps the place to go into detail on what your accounting requirements are is VMSNOTES or DECNETVAX for VMS, ULTRIX for ULTRIX, and DNA for Digital Network Architecture issues, but this isn't limited to DECwindows. |
