Sharepoint Portal Server 2003 Tip:Viewing all the users of a site

There are times when you want to be able to see all the users that have access to the SPS server. 

Note:You must have administrator access in SPS to view thepage.

http://ServerName/_layouts/1033/Siteusrs.aspx 

Replace “ServerName” with the name of your server.  A list of users associated with the site is now available for you to edit or remove.

Now you can change the site collection owner, the descriptive name and add comments.  I love this feature because when I was first setting up groups and users on our Sharepoint server a few years back, I included the domain name as part of the name (which was the default).  This looked ugly and for the life of me I could not figure out how to change it.  This page allows you to just that!

The page also works on sites.  For Example our SPS server has several sites and each one has different security settings.  We don’t want our consultants reviewing our sales site and stealing potential clients now do we?

Again replace the “ServerName” with your server name and the ”SiteName” with your site name.

I hope this tip is as useful to you as it was for me.
