    Exclamation Dial-up logging?

    We just got a phone bill that lists calls to the dial-in support at a remote site. It looks like the connection was frequently interupted and re-dialed. Between about 8 or so calls, the line was in use on long distance from about 3:00 PM Friday to 2:00 or 3:00 PM Sunday This was not done in PC Anywhere or anything. This was a Unix box our computer was connecting to, so it was done with a Windows dial-up networkconnection.

    The suspects are a couple of Win98 machines and a Win2k box. Is there any way to find out when and for how long the computers were using a dial-up connection?

    That exists on a Windows box? I need to be able to check from the Windows end. We know which Unix machine was dialed into. We need to know which computer dialed out and why.
