Thread: Active Directory Real-time Monitoring Tool?

  1. #11
    bballad...sounds great but, are they going to charge me an arm and a leg? I'm on a limited budget (I'm one of three (two really, our IT Director is in charge of making curriculum decisions and doesn’t have much technical experience) in a small IT department in a K-8 private school (I'm the Net Admin and we have about 140 machines, 30-40 printers, plus the network hardware (switches, firewalls, and servers) that I manage). It's pretty crazy...anyway...

    Cliffs: Our budget is very limited...I'm looking for something cheap (500-1500USD) or something free and customizable. Again I don't mind doing some coding (actually I need the practice. I’m pretty good with VB and Scripts)

    Unonthed!
    If you want an AD monitoring tool i sugest you check out QUEST softwares spotlightonAD. You can check it out here .
    It will just depend how much you can shell out for the tool

    I was going to suggest QUEST tools too but MURACU bet me to it.

    They're good and fast but not cheap at all.

    Haven't look at the 2k3 version but the admin pack r resource kit (free from MS) may have a tool to do this. what you want just screams perl script
