Windows Server Task Manager Access

Question

Hi,

I have to give access of of only task manager of Windows Server to TL/Head so that they can monitor users. Is there any way out so that I can give access to Non-Admin i.e. Domain Users access of only task manager of Windows Server by any means say Powershell / Tool or likewise.

Please help!

Answer 1

I was just trying to verify that when you say "logged in", that you were referring to users who have a remote desktop session on your server as opposed to mapping a network drive to the server.

I did not see anything in the group policy documentation that looked like it might allow the access that you desire.

I have heard of this 3rd party tool that allows a user to run a program as an administrator account. I don't know if that would work for task manager or not.

Have you tried having your manager access the Terminal Services mmc snapin's?

In addition, there is no Security tab in the tsconfig.msc console in the RDP-Tcp connection properties. This tab was handy for granting permissions to the tech support team (non-admin group) to connect and manage user sessions on RDS host. I use the following command to give a specific group full control over the RDP sessions on the server:
wmic /namespace:\root\CIMV2\TerminalServices PATH Win32_TSPermissionsSetting WHERE (TerminalName ="RDP-Tcp") CALL AddAccount "woshub\helpdeskteam",2

Instead of Administrator I want the Domain User to login and can view list of all users logged in same as the Administrator can log. Hope you are clear ?
