Title: Asset Discovery for SME Server?
Post by: cyberlair on July 23, 2004, 05:20:21 PM

Hi I have been searching for some software that will take a snap shot of PC's on the network and record their software and hardware configuration in a DB. Is anyone aware of a free package for SME that will do this?

Thanks

What are you using for PC's?  If you are using Windoze, you can create a script that uses the WMI calls and run this on startup, placing the information into a directory and then import into your Database.  The problem with installed Applications and Windoze WMI is if the application doesn't register properly, then it will not be in the list.
