I have an older ASA5505 running the following software; Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 8.0(4)28. I am looking for a method to log when a user connects via vpn.

VPN session establishment and termination events generate a syslog message. Which message depends on your remote access VPN type being used (old IPsec VPN vs newer SSL VPN (AnyConnect client-based or clientless)).
The syslog message, when enabled, can be stored locally, viewed in ASDM, sent to an external logging server etc.
