Re: [ActiveDir]event log monitoring.

Actually the one you want to watch is SCE (System Center Essentials) built for SMBs in mind... (current beta) In the SBS space I don't see a lot of MOM use.... it just never caught on.  "M" space yeah, but not "S" space. Level Platforms, HoundDog, we use them down here... but given that SBS spits out a built in daily monitoring email, MOM just didn't catch on... I think because the MOM Workgroup (which comes in Action pack) only supports 10 servers? (a Kentucky based SBS firm is having a user group presentation that will be webcast on the monitoring software Level Platforms for those interested - if you are - ping me and I'll give you a sign up link - it's a free webcast) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There’s more options with MOM to handle small business which should be something to consider as well…   :m:dsm:cci:mvp | marcusoh.blogspot.com   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Ramon Linan Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2006 1:54 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir]event log monitoring.   MOM is cool...and expensive, anyway, do you know if this kind of monitoring software will kill the machine they are monitoring?   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of John Strongosky Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2006 1:30 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir]event log monitoring.
