... sounds like the heady days of big brother ( bb4.com ). The bells start 
ringing at 95% by default, and get more insistent at 98%. Emails galore. Sadly, 
Sean and the boys were bought out by quest and it all got very commercial. I 
still use it on principle, as I submitted so much to it in my HP-UX days that I 
*deserve* to use it for free now!!!

Don't tell anyone though, they might disagree!

(Just a pointer for anyone wanting to make their admin tasks much simpler. I 
think there's a 'big sister' derivative, written in either php or perl, which 
is still free).
