Dutch-based Simac Software, represented in South Africa by Server Tools, has announced three new system management tools for Windows NT Server networks: the free monitoring tool FREEping, the user and server management tool Network ServaNT, and a new version of the disk quota management tool SpaceGuard.
FREEping
FREEping is a free ping tool which will ping NT servers (or any other IP address) in free-definable intervals. FREEping sends the system administrator a popup message when one of the NT servers stops responding. FREEping works in the background, so a system administrator can concentrate on other work. The FREEping overview window shows all important statistics.
Network ServaNT
Network ServaNT integrates User Manager for Domains, Server Manager, File Manager and the Event Viewer into one tool. Network ServaNT adds features not included in Windows NT management tools such as printing, exporting, drag-and-drop functionality and configuring multiple objects by mouse.
SpaceGuard 4.2
SpaceGuard is a disk quota management solution. New features in version 4.2 are an API, a CLI (command line interface) to manage quotas via the command line, support for compressed files, the possibility to include/exclude subdirectories as part of a quota and the ability to generate the target of pop-up or e-mail messages automatically. When a quota limit is exceeded, SpaceGuard 4.2 allows you to send messages and to execute commands.
