Can a Network admin know if I make a new account ??

[Hound]

Ok so I'm making a program that can Gen accounts and I was wondering if a network admin can see me make those accounts.
Or just say my computer is 192.168.1.1 and I make an account with 192.168.1.2 can the network admin notice the difference, I mean if i logged onto it, it would start sending packets but I mean what should I be looking out for server side

You will have to elaborate a bit more.. Are you talking about local accounts or remote accounts? Domain accounts? Obviously, anything remote can be detected as you will have to send packets over the network. Local accounts can be detected if said admin has access to the machine.

ya its on local accounts

Connecting from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.3 will require a common gateway to assign internal network IPs, thus will be traceable yes.

That does not make any sense at all.. lol. Why do you care about the network if you want to create, lets say, an local account on your machine? Just leave your machine disconnected from the network and no one will realize the new account. At work we query all machine that are connected to the network for local administrative accounts and if there are more than the ones we allowed it will raise an alarm. It all depends on the way how the network admins monitor their devices. Final Conclusion: a good network admin will detect it Maybe you want to go into more detail about what you are trying to do and maybe I can be of more help then

Ok here's the full story I have an okay knowledge of c++ and I'm making a program that will give me full access to the schools computers, what I'm asking right now is if I try to make a new admin account just for me what are the steps i can take as to not be tracked server side?
if its even possible ?

also what would happen if I looped making accounts ?

Just try it. Then ask the admins later if you think it worked or not.

what you have done on local will remain local so domain admin will not be able to track unless you are using they know which computer you are using. and manage the computer locally.

however if you are not on domain this does not applies to you.

beside adding an administrator account locally doesn't really need to go though so much trouble. of doing a programming . just needed some brains will be able to do it with about 15 min cause of the restart to get in.

what most people will want is a hidden domain admin account i believe.
