1. The GUI IS the service or IS the app, so it's interacting directly. If you run the service as system account with desktop interaction and call the gui via the system-tray icon then you're working directly on the service.

If running as a service I'd like to be able to go in and make changes but I have to stop the service, fire it up as an APP, make changes, shut down app, restart service. 2) Make if fully manageable via a web interface, including full functionality. See the web interface for IPMonitor for a nice interface. 3) It needs to be easier to make global changes. This has been partially addressed but can go a bit further. I would suggest keeping a separate credentials manager and then you pick the credentials to use in each check. That way when the details change or a password expires you only have to change it once. 4) Network discovery. Provide an option in the GUI to scan a network/subnet and come back with everything it finds, you can then decide what to add into your monitoring.

We think it's time for some change. The change should be "just" a GUI change not adding features/functionality. If you have some good ideas or have some examples that we could use (as idea), well then just send them over :-) Dirk Bulinckx.
