Hello.

I was wondering if there is an app for mac os x that gives me a list of users connected to to our file server. File Server is running OS X, people connect via smb, appletalk, ssh.

Thanks

In the terminal, "who" will tell you who is connected by means of telnet, SSH, or GUI login. It may or may not tell you Samba users, and I doubt it would tell Appletalk, but it's a start.

I take it you're not using Mac OS X Server (which does give you all of these statistics).

AFS Monitor will track connected AppleShare users: http://hornware.com/afsmonitor/

'who' or 'finger' will show connected ssh users.

'smbstatus' will show connected SAMBA users.

Take a look at 'man atlookup' for Appletalk, 'man smbstatus' for Samba, and 'man who' or 'man w' for ssh users. The reason I mention the man pages is so you know that there are other options you might be interested in.

To get a complete listing from one command type:

w && atlookup && smbstatus

all on one line. Once you figure out what options you want you can just alias the command to something easier to type.
-DU-...etc...
