Current User Identities

When the system detects multiple logins to the same host by different users, the system assumes that only one user is logged into any given host at a time, and that the current user of a host is the last authoritative user login. If only non-authoritative user logins have been logged into the host, the last non-authoritative user login is considered the current user. If multiple users are logged in through remote sessions, the last user reported by the server is the user reported to the management center.

When the system detects multiple logins to the same host by the same user, the system records the first time that a user logs into a specific host and disregards subsequent logins. If an individual user is the only person who logs into a specific host, the only login that the system records is the original login.

If another user logs into that host, however, the system records the new login. Then, if the original user logs in again, his or her new login is recorded.
