Open-AudIT is an application to tell you exactly what is on your network, how it is configured and when it changes. Open-AudIT will run on Windows and Linux systems. Essentially, Open-AudIT is a database of information, that can be queried via a web interface. Data about the network is inserted via a Bash Script (Linux) or VBScript (Windows). The entire application is written in php, bash and vbscript. These are all 'scripting' languages - no compiling and human readable source code. Making changes and customisations is both quick and easy.<br />
<br />
Windows PCs can be queried for hardware, software, operating system settings, security settings, IIS settings, services, users &amp;&nbsp;groups and much more. Linux systems can be queried for a similar amount of information. Network devices (printers, switches, routers, etc) can have data recorded such as IP-Address, MAC Address, open ports, serial number, etc, etc. Output is available in PDF, CSV and webpages. There are export options for Dia and Inkscape.

Belarc is manual and it's slow, but in my experience seems to be the most complete with retrieving serials. It will grab Microsoft and Adobe serials for sure. I'm not sure what else it might grab. <br />
<br />
I'm not sure Spiceworks will grab anything other than Microsoft serials.<br />

Hi Guys,<br />
<br />
I have recently been asked to find out what software is installed on our PC's at work and the licences that go with them to make sure we are properly licensed and such.<br />
<br />
Is anyone aware of any software that with the Domain Admin credentials can do a sweep through our network giving me a report of all software (and licences if poss) that is installed on each PC.<br />
<br />
A plus would also be if the software can provide hardware information as well.<br />
Or if anyone knows a stand-alone program that could report the hardware info would be great.

Network analysis is the process of identifying and remediating the processes and systems within a network, including performance, connectivity and security. The process is performed through the use of tools developed for monitoring and analyzing network activity. Network problems that involve finding an optimal way of doing something are studied under the name combinatorial optimization. Examples include network flow, shortest path problem, transport problem, transshipment problem, location problem, matching problem, assignment problem, packing problem, routing problem, Critical Path Analysis and PERT (Program Evaluation & Review Technique).
