Tai,

Here are the facts:

System Scanner 4.2 Console:

Windows 2000 Release 1
Windows NT 4.0 SP6a

System Scanner Agents:

Version 4.2 Agents:
Windows NT 4.0  SP6a
Novell NDS (enabled via options during the WinNT Agent install)

Version 4.1 Agents:
SUN Solaris 8

Version 4.0 Agents:
Windows 2000 Release 1
SUN Solaris 2.6,  7
IBM AIX 4.3 
HP HP-UX 10.20, 11
LINUX Red Hat 6.1

Version 3 Agents:
Digital UNIX (Tru64 UNIX) 3.2C, 4.0D 
HP-UX 9.05 9.x, 10.10
IBM AIX 3 4.1, 4.2
NCR  (SVR4 on Intel) SVR 4.0+   
Sequent PTX/4 4.0+, 4.2, 4.2X (Large files)
SCO Openserver 5.0
SCO Unixware 2.0+, 2.1
SIEMENS SINIX 5.43
Sun Solaris 1.x,  2.5.1

So the console will only run on Windows. Actually, it also logical to do so
since in most environments, the admin will want to monitor the System
Scanner from his workstation rather than having to run around to a Unix box
every time he wants to run a session or generate a report.

As for its database, theoretically, system scanner can connect to an Oracle
database but this has not been tested and is not support by ISS.

Hiyas,
        Quick question, apologies if it's off topic.  I just been put on
the system scanner team at work and want to check on a couple of
things.  They tell me that it's NT only for console/database.  Is there a
Unix/Solaris/Oracle version?  What's the last version that could be ran off
a unix box (not talking about the agent).
        Anyone have any ideas why it went all NT for 4.2, I know of many
places that will not deploy an NT based solution if at all possible.

-Tai
