Well, SA will allow use of a reg file local to the install, and depending on how stripped down it goes, a simple WinSock.dll and a services/processes lookup .dll would be all that's needed. If those could be brough into the software(?)
Also, if you use "localhost", you could keep a core host file already setup. I dunno, I just know that I've wanted it a couple of times to monitor a server for a few hours without having to install SA. Michael D.

I'd think the time it would take to re-architect SA for this would be excessive. Wouldn't a full blown version on a laptop be easier? You'd have to create the checks/host file either way. -Kevin Michael Shook wrote: > I'd be curious to see a really basic Servers Alive be made portable. > With just enough "guts" for me to go to a remote site and run some > basic diagnostic checks.
