Chris,

 

I dropped this onto my WUG server and I'm blown away by the services I can now monitor. 

 

This is awesome.

Thx,

Jeff

This is the file I've created for my network, just rename it to services.ini.  The exchange is 5.5 and citrix is citrix xp for those who have a similar setup.

Enjoy,

Chris chan

Ps. Great tip regarding autodiscovery by the way.

Rob,

 

You will need to modify the services.ini file found in the c:\program files\whatsup path (recommend that you backup the file first) to include these custom services with a statement to enable the auto discover. It has been requested that IPSwitch include this as a standard feature in a future release (hint version 8, that is now in beta) for all of the default Windows NT 4 and 2000 services. So far, it is not included in version 8 Beta 3.  Perhaps a group of us could gather these services and share the file?

 

Currently the only way to discovery NT services that have been defined previously is to modify the services.ini and include "UseInDiscovery=true" statement (see below):

 

[IIS Admin Service]
CLSID={87B0F902-CF8A-11D2-9CC8-0040053DDA73}
SERVICENAME=IISADMIN
RESTART=0
UseInDiscovery=true

 

[IIS SMTP Service]
CLSID={87B0F902-CF8A-11D2-9CC8-0040053DDA73}
SERVICENAME=SMTPSVC
RESTART=0
UseInDiscovery=true

 

[IIS WWW Service]
CLSID={87B0F902-CF8A-11D2-9CC8-0040053DDA73}
SERVICENAME=W3SVC
RESTART=0
UseInDiscovery=true

 

 

Regards,

 

Jon

I have a number of custom services I have defined and they all check properly. What I want is to click the autodiscover button on the device and check to see if the customer services are on a server.

 

Has anyone done this?

 

Thanks
