Last Reboot Command

[Richhall]

Is there a command line command that tells you when a server was last
rebooted? I know the event log shows this, but just wondered if you
can type something in that would display it.

Cheers

net statistics server (or net stats srv) will give you that information.

What server? This is an XP group.... But for XP, this works from Start > Run
(well, it doesn't *directly* tell you time of last reboot, you need to do
some maths...):

cmd /k systeminfo | find "Up Time"

or without the "cmd /k " part if already in a command prompt window. It
needs the capital U and T.

The date and time was 9/29/2008 2:28 AM, and on a whim, Richhall pounded
out on the keyboard:

Hi Rich,

I use BGInfo on servers I admin. With a shortcut in the Startup folder,
you can configure a background on the Desktop that refreshes each time
the server is rebooted. Or you can launch it manually to update if needed:

Among the options is last reboot date.
