This reminded me of something else. I used to have a basic program in dos that would log the time and date that someone started the computer. Is there such a thing in Linux and could it show who as well as when?

Try a cron job, every 5 min, that runs a script that runs the who command an grep for the user if the value is returned then log it to a file or something.  Or run a script in their .login or .profile that dumps to a .log file.  Make sure that the permissions are set correct or they may wonder what the write error is all about.
