WTS - Remote list connected users

Question

When I perform a simple query like this:

select * from nodeType

Calling skip(N) on the range iterator is slow.

What am I doing wrong?

Solution 1

Take a look here Useful Command-line Commands on Windows

Solution 2

You could use this nice little command line tool:

http://home.fnal.gov/~jklemenc/tslistusers.html

TSListUsers is a command line utility to list both the currently connected and disconnected users, hostname, IP address and RDP session number on either the local or a remote Windows Terminal Server/RDP Server To list the users, you need to have the following abilities: - NetBios access to the server - Permissions allowing you to Query RDP session information (if you can log into the TS, you should have this by default) - Terminal Services/RDP should be running on the target host

Usage:

• TSListUsers.exe /? to get the Help text
• TSListUsers.exe to query a target Terminal Server
• TSListUsers.exe with no paramters to query the local host

Solution 3

Use qwinsta (Query Windows Station) to list the sessions and usernames of your local or a remote terminal services host.

You can then also use rwinsta to disconnect or log off a session of your choice (given the permission to do so).

I know /admin switch. But I need to know who, before disconnect him.

I don't have this access. The server is in another city.

So are you saying remote users are logging onto the console via RDP? If they are using normal RDP sessions you can login through the console (so not logging them off), then open up Terminal Services Manager (Its in administrative tools), and see who is logged in.

quser /SERVER:myserver

+1 Fantastic for me because I got computer hostnames and everything (essential since we share a single user on the controlled computer)

Does not provide ipaddresses or hostnames of connected users
