Ask the system administrator.

Part of the security of the system is that the user needs to know their username as well as their password...

Muthuselvan, it sounds like you're into cracking, which is not what this board is about, should this be the case, please take your issue elsewhere.

Should you be searching, the correct area you're looking for starts with "social engeneering"

No intrusion - Get the details

Hi,

One of the simplest ways is to execute a rsh command from a machine in the network on the remote machine.

#rsh host "ls /home"

This will display all the user home directories having account on that machine.

Thanks,
R.Gopinath
