tracking hits

If I create a webpage that only people in a network can access. Can I track
who clicks a certain link. Maybe by userid?

For instance Joe Blow wants goes to the web page. He is interested in
reading chapter 17. When he clicks the chapter 17 link, his userid, name, or
some form of identification writes to a table or a text file.

Please help!

This would need to be done with some custom scripting in asp or .net.

Typical link setup-> www. domain.com/router.asp?page=17
-all hyperlinks would go to script page (I'll call it router.asp)
-all hyperlinks would have a query string which would identify the link (eg
page=17)

router.asp process
-retrieve user info from login
-retrieve date/time info from server
- resource used from query string
-write to file/database the date, time, username, resource info
-redirect to resource
