Re: Export list of usernames WinNT and Win2K servers

That would indeed provide an output... of everyone who have ever
logged on locally to the server. It will not however display any
userids created for applications and services, nor will it show the
users who do have an id on the server, but never haven't logged on to
it yet (or used the network logon rather than console).

NET USER command should provide the full list methinks.

In Linux/Unix you can less the passwd file and get a list of all the

their usernames etc and have it be a regular text file.  I would like to
know if there is some way to get something similar for Windows servers

on win2k and XP, you can do this:

pull up a command prompt (start>run>cmd)

and type

dir /b "c:\documents and settings" > c:\myfile.txt

this will output all usernames to c:\myfile.txt

it should work on NT and 2kserver.
