I need to check the logs against Workstation XYZ to ensure no one else besides JDOE has logged into it from 9/15/20 00:00:00.000  until 9/22/20. 23:59;59.999 (7-days).  What would be the best SPL to run to check this?

Hi @itsmevic,

if you're speking of windows logs, you should try something like this:

index=wineventlog EventCode=4624 workstation=XYZ user!=JDOE

please check if the fields workstation and user are written in your logs in this way, because I have an italian Windows and I have different fieldnames, but anyway you can see the approach.

Ciao.
