did you installed the Service on the Server or did you just copy the inf and the exe ???
See reply #10 for a installation sample !

for testing run :

xnet list \\YourServer\RemoteCmd

hth

Jochen

btw. you need to be connected with administrative privilege to the Server , but who am I telling this ?

Think it's got anything to do with my urge to find quadruple-X pornstars on our network??

sometimes my brain works a bit slooooow

It was during the tests for en/disabling users when i came to the conclusion that 'net user .... /domain causes 1312 errors when executed on Domain Controlers ...

for the name of Service : that's just what you give it at installation .. call it like you want ... call it 'NASI GORENG' and no-one will be able to find it ever again

So, just run it w/o /DOMAIN and that's it

*grin*
Jochen >> Running with /DOMAIN does indeed give the same error - but I get a nice complete user list with just "NET USER". What I'm trying is "NET USER JPOLS". It should return "username could not be found" but instead I get the [you know what error I'm getting by now] message. Weird.

ps: we're already running a NASI GORENG service...

Don't try to use with unknown ?

Do you have also bami goreng, is menu 71 if I'm right.

just to make sure we're on the same level here are some snippeties of the enable/disable user thingie (whole script is 16Kb, I won't post it unless someone orders)

Evaluate a list of all Users :

code:

have a look and check if it fits ...
ahh , you can keep the progress bar ... no problem for me

It's in the first part , See ?

Fuentez: You have got new mail...

Lonkero: I hope it can, I haven't found any freeware third party tool that helps me.
I doesn't know any NT tool that can do it.

to answer another question : No, we haven't migrated to KiX2K yet (oficially )

And Yes, there should be a possibility to have this done with 20 lines of code using ADSI, KiX2K ...

Sorry i haven't yet installed the runtimes to my NT box , on the other hand i haven't yet installed Win2k to it (btw.. is it hard to get both NT and W2K installed to the same Disk on 2 Partitions ???=)

As soon i have done this you can expect sample scripts !

NET_API_STATUS NetQueryDisplayInformation(
LPCWSTR ServerName,
DWORD Level,
DWORD Index,
DWORD EntriesRequested,
DWORD PreferredMaximumLength,
LPDWORD ReturnedEntryCount,
PVOID *SortedBuffer
);
Parameters
ServerName
[in] Pointer to a constant null-terminated Unicode string specifying the name of the remote server on which the function is to execute. The string must begin with \\. If this parameter is NULL, the local computer is used.
Level
[in] Specifies the information level of the data. This parameter can be one of the following values. Value Meaning
1 Return user account information. The SortedBuffer parameter points to an array of NET_DISPLAY_USER structures.
2 Return individual computer information. The SortedBuffer parameter points to an array of NET_DISPLAY_MACHINE structures.
3 Return group account information. The SortedBuffer parameter points to an array of NET_DISPLAY_GROUP structures.

Index
[in] Specifies the index of the first entry for which to retrieve information. Specify zero to retrieve account information beginning with the first display information entry. For more information, see the following Remarks section.
EntriesRequested
[in] Specifies the maximum number of entries for which to retrieve information. On Windows 2000, each call to NetQueryDisplayInformation returns a maximum of 100 objects.
PreferredMaximumLength
[in] Specifies the preferred maximum size, in bytes, of the system-allocated buffer returned in the SortedBuffer parameter. It is recommended that you set this parameter to 0xFFFFFFFF.
ReturnedEntryCount
[out] Pointer to a DWORD value that receives the number of entries in the buffer returned in the SortedBuffer parameter. If this parameter is zero, there are no entries with an index as large as that specified. Entries may be returned when the function's return value is either NERR_Success or ERROR_MORE_DATA.
SortedBuffer
[out] Pointer to a buffer that receives a pointer to a system-allocated buffer specifying a sorted list of the requested information. The format of this data depends on the value of the Level parameter. Because this buffer is allocated by the system, it must be freed using the NetApiBufferFree function. Note that you must free the buffer even if the function fails with ERROR_MORE_DATA. For more information, see the following Return Values section.
