You're still thinking about this backwards.  You don't call ISensLogon 
(as you have seen).  It's not a service that you USE.  Instead, it's a 
service that you PROVIDE.  These are callbacks.  You develop a COM 
server that implements the ISensLogon functions.  Then you create an 
object from your own COM server, and register that object with the SENS 
services using IEventSubscription, which is implemented by the 
CLSID_CEventSubscription server.

After you have done that, the system will start sending events to your 
ISensLogon routines.  But first, you have to create a COM server (so you 
can implement ISensLogon).  That's the first step.  There are sample COM 
servers in Python on the web.

There really is no short example.  This Microsoft knowledge base article 
includes a C++ sample app that shows how to implement ISenseNetwork, 
which is practically identical to ISensLogon:

What are you really trying to accomplish here?  This is complicated, and 
there may be an easier way to do what you want.
