Sorry, I have now double checked and realise that I was wrong.
I have posted this message to the newsgroup as well.
However I would like to say that
1) It is unclear in the System Support Manual - a clarification of this
would be nice to stop
stupid support people like me grabbing the wrong end of the stick.
2) Why do you need the usage logs anyway? Surely a large pharmaceutical
(their security
always seems to me to be of military strength) is still going to
baulk at supplying
any private information about usage on their machines.
