That might be a little tough to do because an HTTP connection isn't persistent.
On a temporary basis you could add a line of code to your PHP program to print
out the user's name and time to your web server's error_log. Maybe something
like...

<?php

error_log(time( ) . " " . $_ENV['REMOTE_USER']);

?>
