I've already seen it on some other servers
So it is possible and not difficult to do. But a really nice thing ^^

You seem to have combined the meanings of "possible" and "not difficult" Razz

Doing this requires an additional database system running on the server computer, plus the ability for it to act as a web server to constantly send out that information, plus php programming for the web site itself to format and display the information.

Yeah, I've look into it a while ago, and it's a lot of work for me and my desktop PC which is running the game.

There is the Buddy List on the Bioware site that can provide some of this information. You can add member names to your list and it will tell you when they are playing on-line and the IP of the server they're on. This information is also listed on one of the tabs when you're logging into multi-player NWN.

I use it to keep track of my party members. YMMV.
