Is there a command that will tell how long the server has been up and running. Can you find that information in the GUI?

You can get info from server you are logged into or a remote server. You can view info such as:
-Server uptime in hrs/mins/secs
-Key system events and stats
-startup, shutdown dates and times
-Application failure events
-Specify for events after a certian date or
number of days
ETC... the "/help" switch will give you details

If you are running Netware the console shows the time up
If NT then task manager - system idle process shows how long the system has been own in hours, mins and seconds under CPU time.

Also event viewer system log - that's when event viewer itself was started.

hope that helps

I like the answer about uptime.exe and that would be my first choice.

But just as an alternative, you can also set up Performance Monitor and look under the System heading for the System Up Time parameter. Then you can either display it and watch the seconds tick by or write the results to a log. Since I like to watch CPU utilization and other operating parameters anyway, adding an uptime ticker to the display is no problem.

Type net statistics workstation | more at a command prompt on the server. The first line will tell you the last time the server was booted (assuming no one stopped and re-started the workstation service.)
