Does anyone know how to get a list of currently logon users in a Windows2000 Domain? Because sometimes we need to shutdown the server (for maintinence or application hangs) and we want to know who's currently logon to the domain so we can call the users and ask them to logoff...

thanks.
 
Don't know of any commands that will tell you the usernames that are active, but net view will tell you the computers that are online.
From a command prompt, type
net view
if you have static users at workstations this might help, otherwise. Good luck. MCSE, A+
 
I'd just use the Computer Management MMC. "Start", "Programs", "Administrative Tools", "Computer Management". It will list current sessions and open files
 
i prefer a command line thus use the 'net sessions' command.
