asked on How to know the local admins of windows servers
Hi,
I have some Windows servers (Windows Servers 2016, Windows servers 2019).
I want to know the local admins of each server.
I tried to RDP to a server, but I cannot find it.
Any help please? Would I use a software for it please?
Thanks,
Tjie

If you are on the server, you can right click over the windows icon, select computer management, expand local Users and Groups, click on Groups and open Administrators
The servers firewalls might be blocking remote management and/or they might have RDP turned off. You can create a group policy to enable RDP and/or modify the server firewalls (just understand that you're weakening security).
Otherwise, you'd have to manually check each of them. Depending on the firewall adjustments you make, you can use RDP, you could connect with Computer Management, you could run scripts. Really depends on how you've secured your servers.
