Network Audit

[Styles]

Well its time to go through and see whats what on my network. And thanks to the previous IT department I have no documentation of my current site. What I want to do is install a client on each PC (NT/2K) and run a hardware and software audit from a central PC. Its either that or pay some poor bastard to go around to each and every PC and do it manually ...
I have been looking at LANUtil which seems to be a good product, has anyone out there had any experience with this or do you know of any better products? One of the benefits of LANutil seems to be the fact that it can be used in the future for software deployment which is always good.

hey i checked out that link... that product looks kind of cool..

however, if you are just going to licensing irregularities and management, BSA offers a free utility at their site bsa.org.

As for that lan utility.... very cool. I'm going to look at it further.

Intel LAN Desk Manager should be able to do that....and give you some other time-saving options as well.

Good Luck
