Need to get a list of all users within a subnet of servers

  • 772

I am looking to write a batch or vbs script to gather all users (local to the server. ie. administrators or a local account(not ad users)) on a collection of servers inside my network.

I assume I could do this by subnet. Could even put the server names into a csv text file for the script to read from and report back to. Lots to ask. I would use net user however I run into local access only.

Ideas? Or too many security walls to work?

Update: I do have access to these servers. It is mostly a security check to make sure that no other admin has changed the template. Powershell would be fine as well.

I know it can be done. Just been a while...

    using PowerShell

    computerName = Read-Host 'Enter computer name or press <Enter> for localhost' 

if ($computerName -eq "") {$computerName = "$env:computername"} 
$computer = [ADSI]"WinNT://$computerName,computer" 
$computer.psbase.Children | Where-Object { $_.psbase.schemaclassname -eq 'user' } | Format-Table Name, Description -autoSize

    source

    or you could use an example from technet, as suggested. here is one
