Net Stats & Windows Server

Windows Server tracks the sessions that have been authenticated into the system, those that have been timed out, those that have errored, kb sent/received, response time, errors, permission problems, password problems, files opened, print job spooling and buffers quickly and easily.

net statistics

When prompted choose server or workstation. In this case, we’ll use Server.

net statistics Server
