Listing Accounts

OS

Operating System (OS) user accounts are stored in /etc/passwd. You can get a list of all OS accounts using the following command:

cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd

If you want a list of user accounts (not service accounts), then you can filter /etc/passwd for accounts with a UID greater than 999 like this:

cat /etc/passwd | awk -F: '$3 > 999 {print ;}' | cut -d: -f1

SOC

You can get a list of users in Security Onion Console (SOC) by navigating to the Administration interface and then clicking Users:
