I would concurr based upon a security perspective, it would sit much better
with FW admins to have servers alive remote agent talking on a single port and
relaying back to the server than asking FW admin to open many ports.
It may even draw more new customers to a solution which you could monitor
servers/routers/FW across an unsecure network e.g.
Servers Alive central Server -> SSL encrypted tunnel -> remote agent
And obviously the reverse.
Almost all FW admins allow ssl to the internet, just need to ask to allow it in
to a single Ahem... "WEB" server

Personally I would use it yes. Opening Netbios ports through the firewall to
DMZ is not a great idea as we all know. But getting up and walking the extra 5
meters to my server room to logon to the console is a real drag... :)
I'm not sure of the pricing model you have right now (bit out of touch) but
depending on that I would be happy to make a case to my Director that this is a
far better solution.
Cheers
Barry

I suppose you mean have that within the Remote Agent for Windows?
If the Remote Agent for Windows has this, would you use it more (the Remote
Agent I mean)? And more then 2 agents (that are included in the enterprise
edition)?
(we do have to look at the cost/benefit of this type of dev too).

The eventlog check uses Netbios in order to connect to the remote system, so
you'll need to open up the Netbios ports.
