The syntax of this command is:
NET USER

without switches, it lists the user accounts for the computer. The
user account information is stored in the user accounts database.
This command works only on servers.

view. The name of the user account can have as many as

A password must satisfy the minimum length set with the
/MINPWLEN option of the NET ACCOUNTS command. It can have as

* Produces a prompt for the password. The password is not
displayed when you type it at a password prompt.
