[WhatsUp Forum] Running as Service vs. Application

[Bill_Busby/MO/americancentury]

I've recently implemented WUG 6.02 and found an anoying feature in the way
it tracks device states. When run as a service it maintains the device
state (up/down) but doesn't share that info when you PcAnywhere to the WUG
server and start another instance of the app to utilize the GUI. I have to
use to the GUI to config event forwarding to my Tivoli TEC, but I don't
want to have to have someone logged into the box at all times. It's a
security concern and a adminstrative issue (can't tell who made a change,
just that 'wug_user' change program options).

How do others tend to use this app, running as a service and accepting the
additional notifications or running as an app with a user constantly logged
onto the server?
