On XP, we have tasklist which is very close to ps. The docs says "tasklist is a replacement for the tlist tool". So i would expect that you would have tlist on win2k.

I think that there is another option for you. I'm pretty sure that win2k has the windows scripting host and vbscript. When vbscript is running under wsh, it can access just about *any* com object. XP has a package called WMI and I think win2k has it too.

I don't understand everything that wmi can do yet, but I've download the technet script repository. You should do the same, or at least scan it. Here is one script that microsoft says will run on win2k....

Code:

Set objDictionary = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
    & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colProcesses = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
    ("Select * from Win32_Process")
For each objProcess in colProcesses 
    objDictionary.Add objProcess.ProcessID, objProcess.Name 
Next
Set colThreads = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
    ("Select * from Win32_Thread")
For each objThread in colThreads
    intProcessID = CInt(objThread.ProcessHandle)
    strProcessName = objDictionary.Item(intProcessID) 
    Wscript.Echo strProcessName & VbTab & objThread.ProcessHandle & _
        VbTab & objThread.Handle & VbTab & objThread.ThreadState 
Next

This will list all threads on the system. Quite a few of the monitoring script won't run on win2k. And I see a few that won't even run on xp. Or at least they're not supported.

But anyway, take a look at vbscript. It is an interesting tool.

ACPIWMI(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						ACPIWMI(4)

NAME

     acpiwmi -- Windows Management Instrumentation support for ACPI

SYNOPSIS

     acpiwmi* at acpi?
     acpiwmibus* at acpiwmi?
     wmidell* at acpiwmibus?
     wmieeepc* at acpiwmibus?
     wmihp* at acpiwmibus?
     wmimsi* at acpiwmibus?

DESCRIPTION

     The acpiwmi device driver provides an ACPI interface for Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).  The ACPI WMI interface is typically used
     to support vendor specific features found in various laptops.

     The following WMI mappings are supported:

	   wmidell   Dell laptops

	   wmieeepc  Some models of Asus Eee PC

	   wmihp     Hewlett-Packard laptops

	   wmimsi    MSI laptops

     The functionality varies from vendor to vendor.  Typically the interface is used for function and hotkey handling, but additional features
     may be present.

     2001.

HISTORY

     The acpiwmi device driver appeared in NetBSD 6.0.

AUTHORS

     Jukka Ruohonen <jruohonen@iki.fi> wrote acpiwmi and most of the mappings.

CAVEATS

     While WMI should provide a certain degree of portability across laptop models from a particular vendor, there is no guarantee that the map-
     pings are functional in all models.

     The wmihp driver may conflict with hpqlb(4).
