If you need to save money (i.e. don't want to pay for MOM, HPOV, AppIQ, etc) - you can use MonitorMagic, http://www.tools4ever.com/products/monitormagic/. It has a tiny agent that sits on a server...we had it loaded on our Domain Controllers for years - it was granular enough to email SAs whenever a computer was added to the domain, for example. Never had any problems with it, though we don't run it any more... We're going to be evaluating GFI EventManager soon....anyone else running that application in their environment? --James

Hi, I want to implement a system that will send me an email whenever there is an error in any of the event logs in my servers. I could do this with an script or similar, but I don't have the time to do it that way and many other reasons. I was wondering if any of you has used GFI EventsManager, my main concern is to know if monitoring the events will put to much work on the servers that I am monitoring, I don't want to crash my server because I am monitoring it. Any suggestion? Thanks Rezuma List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir@mail.activedir.org/
