Is there a way to graph remote desktop user count?

I'm looking for a way to count Remote desktop users.  I've googled, but found nothing useful.  Any hints are great!

    Is this already available in zenoss core 4.2?

    It probably won't work in core 4 since core 4 uses the formerly enterprise WMI pack.  You could however create a template with a WMI datasource and use the same query as the WMI Terminal Server ZenPack is using.  The query is in the screenshot on the ZenPack's page.

    Using the Zenpack works just fine in 4.2 SP1. The ony thing I had to change was rename ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_TerminalServer-2.1.egg file

     

    Summary of installation:

     

    As user zenoss (su zenoss) from root

     

     

    wget servlet/JiveServlet/download/5913-13-9403/ZenPacks.community.SQLDataSource-2.4.egg.zip
    wget servlet/JiveServlet/download/3392-30-7467/ZenPacks.community.WMIDataSource-3.0.egg.zip
    wget servlet/JiveServlet/download/3495-8-3036/ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_TerminalServer-2.1-py2.6.egg.zip
    
    unzip ZenPacks.community.SQLDataSource-2.4.egg.zip
    unzip ZenPacks.community.WMIDataSource-3.0.egg.zip
    unzip ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_TerminalServer-2.1-py2.6.egg.zip 
    rm -f *.zip
    
    mv ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_TerminalServer-2.1-py2.6.egg ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_TerminalServer-2.1.egg
    
    zenpack --install ZenPacks.community.SQLDataSource-2.4.egg
    zenoss restart
    zenpack --install ZenPacks.community.WMIDataSource-3.0.egg
    zenoss restart
    zenpack --install ZenPacks.community.WMIPerf_TerminalServer-2.1.egg 
    zenoss restart
    
    

     

    Once installed, you'll need to configure zWinUser and zWinPassword with the appropriate credentials that can query WMI on your Windows box. Once set, Bind the WMITerminalServer2008 template to the device and assuming that everything is configured, you should start getting graph results in 10-20 minutes.
