Let's say you have limited access at a work place and manager wants if a user has access for something that they requested and you don't have the proper access to check. Today I will show you how to check access on limited access. The way that this example is setup is by virtual environment from Windows 2003 Server to Windows XP.
Tools
The picture above is typical Windows Server login. It just shows that I am running server OS. Ok let's move on.
We are going to check on a user on "DTSAdmin" At the command prompt type "net user DTSAdmin /domain" it will gather from the server a lot of good information as shown in the picture above. If you don't type the "/domain" syntax the computer is going to think that user name is at the local machine. You will get an error like this in the screen-shot below.
Remember the command prompt is powerful tool if you know how use it properly.
Thanks for reading.
