9.2 Net Command
Many Advanced Server administrative tasks can be performed using the Net command at
the Advanced Server command prompt. Although we recommend that you use the
programs available through Windows NT Administrative Tools and Windows NT Server
Tools to administer Advanced Server, the Net command-line interface also can be used.
The following sections summarize the Net commands that are available in Advanced
Server and describes syntax and usage conventions.
9.2.1 Administering Local and Remote Servers
When you administer a server while you are working at the server command prompt, that
server is called the
local server. If you are administering a server from the command prompt
of another server, the server being administered is called the remote server.
Some of your network users may be designated as account operators , print operators , or
server operators . These users have limited administrative or operator privileges that enable
them to perform specific tasks. These privileges are sufficient to use the Net command to
administer a local server at the Advanced Server command prompt.
However, to use the Net command to administer a remote Advanced Server, you must be
logged on to Advanced Server as an Administrator with full administrative privilege. If you
have different operators responsible for parts of your network and you do not want to assign
them full administrative privilege, then they must work only at the Advanced Server
command prompt of the server being administered.
9.2.1.1 Administering a Local Advanced Server
Ê To administer a local Advanced Server using the Net command
1. Log on to the UNIX system hosting the Advanced Server.
2. At the UNIX system prompt, log on to the network as Administrator or as a user with
administrative privileges by typing the following command:
net logon username password
3. Enter the appropriate Net command. For example, to display a list of the server’s
shared resources, type
net share
Remember to log off using the command net logoff when you have finished admin-
istering Advanced Server, since log off will not be carried out automatically when
you exit the UNIX shell.
