Easiest method for gathering licenses across a network.

Hello,

 I want to know if there is a way to setup a license monitoring service on my DC's, so that they check and validate all license counts across my network (only M$ licenses are what we are concerned with).

 Is there a server component that will gather license information as computers log-in and check for updates?

 Any suggestions on tools that will be greatly apreciated.

 Thank you in advance,

This is close, but what I'm looking for, is for something that will run daily or when a roaming device (laptop for example), is connected to the domain.

 The problem is that 1/2 of my network consists of mobile laptops, and getting all staff members in the office at the same time with their pc's connected and turned on is a near impossibility.

 So I'm looking more for a constant running tool, then a one-off run application.

 Thank you again in advance,

 Privasoft.

You would think microsoft would have a tool that can monitor ALL of their software OS's and Office keys via a domain connection.  I'm surprised they make license monitoring such a difficult process to manage.
Neither of these actually helped. Sorry guys.
