I had a need the other day to find out if and when my domain account was expiring and a friend of mine offered this command:
C:\>net user billyg /domain
Running that command gives you something like this:
The request will be processed at a domain controller for domain fakedomain.com. User name billyg Full Name Bill Gates Comment User's comment Country code (null) Account active Yes Account expires Never Password last set 12/1/2008 9:30 AM Password expires Never Password changeable 9/25/2001 8:15 AM Password required Yes User may change password Yes Workstations allowed All Logon script User profile Home directory Last logon 1/4/2009 2:04 PM Logon hours allowed All Local Group Memberships *Administrators Global Group memberships *Domain Admins *Domain Users The command completed successfully.
When you’re a consultant like myself and have a bunch of different domain accounts, it can be a helpful command.
