Sample Code:

DateTime systime = new DateTime(1601, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0); //win32 systemdate

  UInt64 count;
  IntPtr luidPtr = IntPtr.Zero;
  LsaEnumerateLogonSessions(out count, out luidPtr);  //gets an array of pointers to LUIDs

  IntPtr iter = luidPtr;      //set the pointer to the start of the array

  for (ulong i = 0; i < count; i++)   //for each pointer in the array
  {
      IntPtr sessionData;

      LsaGetLogonSessionData(iter, out sessionData);
      SECURITY_LOGON_SESSION_DATA data = (SECURITY_LOGON_SESSION_DATA)Marshal.PtrToStructure(sessionData, typeof(SECURITY_LOGON_SESSION_DATA));

      //if we have a valid logon
      if (data.PSiD != IntPtr.Zero)
      {
      //get the security identifier for further use
      System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier sid = new System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier(data.PSiD);

      //extract some useful information from the session data struct
      string username = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(data.Username.buffer).Trim();      //get the account username
      string domain =  Marshal.PtrToStringUni(data.LoginDomain.buffer).Trim();    //domain for this account  
      string authpackage = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(data.AuthenticationPackage.buffer).Trim();    //authentication package

      SECURITY_LOGON_TYPE secType = (SECURITY_LOGON_TYPE)data.LogonType;
      DateTime time = systime.AddTicks((long)data.LoginTime);                  //get the datetime the session was logged in

      //do something with the extracted data, ie, add to a display control....
      listBox1.Items.Add("User: " + username + " *** Domain: " + domain + " *** Login Type: (" + data.LogonType + ") " + secType.ToString() +" *** Login Time: "+time.ToLocalTime().ToString());

      }
      iter = (IntPtr)((int)iter + Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(LUID)));  //move the pointer forward
      LsaFreeReturnBuffer(sessionData);   //free the SECURITY_LOGON_SESSION_DATA memory in the struct
  }
  LsaFreeReturnBuffer(luidPtr);   //free the array of LUIDs
