Q: How can I verify a computer DNS entries are correctly registered in DNS?
A: You can use the NSLookup tool to verify that
DNS entries are correctly registered in DNS. For example, to verify record
registration, use the following commands: nslookup computername.domain.com.
Q: How can I
run Windows NT 4 Server Manager Tool on W2K?
A: Run srvmgr.exe.
How to delete
same type files from different folders
You can create a batch file including del command, for example, del *.tmp /s,
and schedule to run it.
Q: How to list the non-administrative shares on a remote system and the ACLs on
those shares.
A: Run srvcheck.exe for Server Share Check, for
example, srvcheck \\computername
Q: How can I use the NT
4 User Manager on W2K?
A: Run usrrngr.exe.
Q: Is there any way to list the user information such as username, full name,
logon time.
A: Run usrstat.exe for user Statistics such as
username, full name, logon time, for example, usrstat domainname.
Q: How can I
start a program without logon the server?
A: Use NET START SecviceName, for example,
net start messanger.
Q: How can I
find which services the server are running?
A: Using the NET START command and it will
display all running services name.
[ads/yahoobanner240.htm]
Q: Why I can't get print spooler when typing net start art print spooler?.
A: If there is a spaces appear in the service's
display name, you need to place double Quotation marks around the name. For
example, to start the Print Spooler, use the following syntax: NET START "Print
Spooler".
Q: How to add a user right
remotely
A: If you cannot access the computer locally,
you may try to use the Ntrights.exe utility to remotely add the user right. Ntrights.exe is a Resource Kit utility that can be used to set
user rights from a command prompt. Ntrights.exe can be used to manipulate the
rights on either the local computer or a remote computer. (Refer to MS Q152478).
Note: to use NTRight.exe utility to add a user
right remotely, the computer must already connect to a workgroup or domain and
can access by another machine.
How to Determine Which Program Uses or Blocks Specific TCP Ports in Windows
Server 2003
The 2003 Netstat.exe utility has a new switch, the -o
switch, that can display the process identifier (ID) that is associated with
each connection. For example, the netstat -ano command can
produce the following output:
Proto Local Address Foreign Address State PID
TCP 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:0 Listening 888
Q: How to find my logon server and
domain
Command Set shows COMPUTERNAME, LOGONSERVER,
USERDOMAIN and USERNAME.
How to manage services remotely
The NT Resource Kit has two utilities, sc.exe
and netsvc.exe, that allow you to manage remote computer services. For example,
to view the services on a remote machine, use this command: netsvc /query \\servername /list. To startmssqlserver, use
netsvc mssqlserver \\servername /start.
How to use net helpmsg
to check error details
net helpmsg <message
number in decimal>
For
example, net helpmsg 1355 equates to "The specified domain either does not exist
or could not be contacted."
What's Netsh?
Netsh is a command utility that allows you to
display or configure the network configuration of a computer either locally or
remotely.
You can use the Netsh.exe tool to perform the following tasks:
* Configure interfaces.
* Configure routing protocols.
* Configure filters.
* Configure routes.
* Configure remote access behavior for (RRAS) Service.
* Display the configuration of a currently running router on any computer.
* Use the scripting feature to run a collection of commands in batch mode
against a specified router.
The syntax for the Netsh.exe tool is:
netsh [-r router name] [-a AliasFile] [-c Context] [Command | -f ScriptFile]
Sample: How
to Use the NETSH Command to Change IP address
You can use the netsh command in Windows 2000 to script the process of changing
a computer from a static Internet Protocol (IP) address to Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or vice versa. The netsh command accomplishes this
task without the need to restart the computer. This feature is particularly
useful for laptops that move from one environment to another, when it is
necessary to use statically assigned IP addresses at one location and DHCP
assigned IP addresses at another.
1) To display all of the adapters in the computer with their current IP
addresses to determine the correct adapter name, type the following command:
Netsh interface ip show config
2) To switch the specified adapter from a static address to DHCP, type the
following command:
netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" dhcp
NOTE: The InterfaceName parameter must match the name of the interface
as specified in Network Connections. If InterfaceName contains
spaces, use quotation marks around the text (for
example, "Interface Name").
3) To change to a static address, type the following command:
netsh interface ip set address "Local Area Connection" static ipaddr
subnetmask gateway metric
NOTE: Replace ipaddr with the static IP address, subnetmask with the subnet
mask, gateway with the default gateway and, if necessary, metric with the
appropriate metric. For example, to change my NIC, 3COM, from 10.0.0.11 to a
static address of 10.0.0.111 with the same subnet mask and the default gateway
with a metric of 1:
netsh interface ip set address 3COPM static 10.0.0.11 255.255.0.0 10.0.0.111 1
How to use netsh
to add/delete/list the DHCP server
Adding Syntax:
"netsh dhcp add server
ServerDNSServerIP"
Example:
netsh dhcp add server
dhcpsrv.myomain.com 10.0.0.1
Deleting Syntax:
"netsh dhcp delete server
ServerDNSServerIP"
Example: netsh dhcp delete server
dhcpsrv.myomain.com 10.0.0.1
Listing Syntax:
"netsh dhcp show server
Example: netsh dhcp show server
How to change IP using batch file
Depending on what you want, you may have
two options: 1) if you want renew IP, create a batch file including ipconfig
/renew; 2) if you want to re-setup another static ip, use netsh (refer to
How to Use
the NETSH Command to Change IP address)
How to check which port is opened in my proxy server (must be from XP)
Syntax
connect iphost Host Port (host would be host name or ip)
Example: 1) netsh; 2) diag; 3) from netsh diag>connect iphost 10.0.0.1 25. If
[none}, that means port 25 is closed; if [25], it is opened.
How to use Task
Manager
Task Manager provides many useful information about applications, processes,
performance and network (for XP only) running on your computer. You can use Task
Manager to monitor key indicators of your computer's performance. You can see
the status of the programs that are running and end programs that have stopped
responding. You can also assess the activity of running processes using as many
as fifteen parameters, and see graphs and data on CPU and memory usage. In
addition, if you are connected to a network, you can view network status and see
how your network is functioning. If you have more than one user connected to
your computer, you can see who is connected, what they are working on, and you
can send them a message. To run Task Manager, press Ctrl+Alt+Del together.
How to use
Networking tab (XP only) in Task Manager
The Networking tab provides an indication of the network traffic for
the connections on the local computer. It is useful as a quick reference for
determining the amount of network bandwidth being consumed. When multiple
network connections are being used, it allows easy comparison of the traffic for
each connection. If you have multiple networking cards on your computer, the
chart displays a composite index of all networks, representing all network
traffic. The Networking monitor can be a tool for troubleshooting.
Obtain the process identifiers for the processes that are running.
Use takslist command.
