Subject: Software inventory management


:
: Sudenly there is an improved desire to keep up to date on the latest
: security fixes at work. I've got about 50 machines that I manage. OpenBSD,
: FreeBSD, Linux, Solairs, and HP-UX.
:
: I am looking for recomendations for a (hopefully automed), prefereably
: web based tool to keep up with what versions of OS, OS patches, and ports
: are installed on these machines.
:
: Could anyone with experience using such a tool share their experience,
: both good and bad for such [ackages?
:

I am not sure about any 'automated' solutions, but Request Tracker could
fill the need.
Have a look at:
http://bestpractical.com/rt/features.html

It's avalable in ports:

With this extension (AssetTracker):

Good Luck, Jon
