| 52480 | 2002-06-05 00:00:00 | Is there any software out there that can scan a network to obtain hardware details of connected computers, e.g. CPU, RAM, HDD, etc.? | Guest (0) | ||
| 52481 | 2002-06-05 03:09:00 | have a look at a piece of software called Track-It! Its aimed at help desk stuff, but it has a very comprehensive network scanner that finds out the information on connected computers. Otherwise have a look at something called Altiris. Its some sort of remote monitoring software that the pointy heads run over my intranet. they might have a tool that does what you're after. enjoy. sam iam (the hardware man) |

If you are on a university or polytechnic network running anything like this could easily get you thrown off the sytem. That could harm your course work. University or Polytech systems *will* detect such software running. The administrators look at the security logs. If you are on a work system (if the system administrator is even half-competent) the scanning will be detected. That could harm your employment prospects. |
