Further Good Links/Tools

In a previous post, I described some tools that I had found useful for documenting the system environment.

A pretty comprehensive system description of many versions of the Windows OS can be generated by SIW - Systems Information for Windows, which was written by Gabriel Topala. It is only free for personal use. The pricing model for Businesses is in the right sort of ball park.

If you are a Legato Networker user and you need to generate reports for either your own benefit or the benefit of others, then the Networker Reporting Utility is well worth a look.The download mechanism is rather painful, but it is worthwhile. There is a product from Legato which does a similar job, but for our environment we were looking at having to spend upwards of £30,000 to £40,000! That decision was pretty much a no-brainer!

And that's that for now!
