Remote Desktop User login tracking

Guys I need to go back and look at the login history of a user on an RDP server. I have tried going to "terminalservices-remoteconnectionmanager" and looking in the operational log. However, it was set to purge the log once it got to the 1024kb file size. Is there anywhere else I can go and look back at a users login history???

That works but only goes back about 2 weeks, any other ideas?

If you have a backup of the log, I'd restore it to a different folder so your current file is retained while allowing you to access the older log entries.

Do you have a backup?

I dont. This wasnt something we were monitoring and just now had a need to start. Just trying to see if windows might keep a log that goes back farther.

Thanks for the help. Again, this wasnt something we thought we need to watch and just became an issue, I will implement these things going forward so we have a history.
