<BLOCKQUOTE>
<FONT COLOR="#C08010">A: </FONT>You can redirect the output to a file by appending for example "> file.txt" at the end of what you write at the Command Prompt. You can stop the output by appending "| more".

<I><FONT COLOR="#C08010">Q: </FONT>What makes winfo better than RedButton?</I>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<FONT COLOR="#C08010">A: </FONT>One thing is the -n switch, described on the previous page. Another thing is that all user accounts are displayed, not only the built-in Administrator account. Yet another thing is that all trust accounts are displayed.

<BLOCKQUOTE>
<FONT COLOR="#C08010">A: </FONT>winfo won't try to log into the checked computer by trying passwords on all accounts. This can be both good or bad - good if you're not using winfo to break into the other computer, or test it's security - bad if you're trying to do just that. The thought is that winfo is supposed to be used as simply a useful NT tool, without putting a lot of entries in the security event log. Another thing is that winfo shows all trust accounts.
