Hi all,

I recently became the new head of our light microscopy unit, and one thing
that jumped out at me is that we have a machine that is disconnected from
our (buggy) scheduler/ bookkeeping program (which itself is something else
I want to change, but hey, windmills later).
It is not even connected to the local network, for all sorts of reasons I
was given. (So yes, students need to copy everything to USB  disks).

Anyone can waltz in and use the microscope, with no need to log in, and I
have no way of knowing who was last.
I really don't want to make a new windows user account for every new
student.

So I need a simple log-in program with admin rights that will give me at
least a log of whom used the machine last. So I would still need to
manually  put in each new user once, but still better than adding endless
windows accounts.
Anyone?

Thanks,
Avi
