Unable to Modify Logon Hours on a Member Server (179450)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q179450 SYMPTOMS
On a stand-alone server or member server in a domain environment,
administrators are unable to modify the logon hours for a user in User
Manager. These hours can be set if a new user account is created by using
the Add User Accounts wizard included in the Administrative Wizards.
However, after the user is created, there is no way to adjust this
restriction through User Manager.
CAUSE
In User Manager, the button entitled Hours does not exist and, therefore,
prevents modification of a user's logon hours on the server.
RESOLUTION
The user's logon hours can be modified by using the NET USERS command. For
example, to set the user's logon hours to Mondays and Tuesdays from 2:00
A.M. to 3:00 A.M., enter the following command:
NET USER USER_NAME /TIMES:MONDAY,TUESDAY,2
Further information on the NET USERS command can be obtained by typing:
NET HELP USE
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0. We
are researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
