OCS Inventory is a database and reporting interface that will keep an up-to-date database of the devices on your network(s). It's got a server component that runs on Linux or Windows (Linux is recommended) and client agents that run on Windows, *nix, and MacOS X. The client agents also use nmap to scan for other types of nodes, such as routers and printers. It's very slick; I've used it for six years for my job, and we currently track over 500 computers plus a few other devices through nmap.
The whole thing is GPL, and you can opt for a support contract.
It can also integrate with another package called GLPI, which among other things handles trouble tickets and is also Free.
We've just switched over to Zimbra and all the thick clients are going away soon, so at least this won't be ammunition for the people who want to use Outlook.:P
Since you and the other guy seem to be illiterate, it would be pretty obvious to most people that when the previous AC said that the project was killed by the GOP (in '93) and I pointed out that "those folks" weren't in power until '95, by "those folks" I was talking about the Republicans.
Are you and daath93 mouth-breathing illiterates, or political hacks?
Meh. I was using Noscript when Firefox was still my main browser. If a site didn't work right and I was reasonably sure it wasn't malicious, it got whitelisted. It was only ever a mild annoyance to have to do this.
It couldn't be that Stalin (as dictators are wont to be) was self-serving, and that he set up such a strong state it stayed that way long after his death, then exported the "revolution" to other countries for geopolitical reasons after WWII.
I've seen occasional comments from retired GOP politicians along the lines of "gee, you people are so nuts that St. Reagan-of-the-deficits would be unwelcome in his own party these days". The other day we even got something like that from Roy Blunt, current senator from Missouri.
Never you mind that Blunt's been part of that very same problem since he was first elected in '94.
The national party/is/ the teabaggers and neocons right now, with a dash of Paultards for nutty pseudo-libertarian states-rightsism. Perhaps these putative pre-St. Reagan GOPers should start calling themselves something else, or vote Dem because that party is probably the closest thing to their ideal.
But all taxes are theft and taken by force, or at least that's what an anarcho-capitalist type I was arguing with this morning said before he flounced.
Every time someone trots out one of the founders, I wonder if they're just as eager to consider a black person 3/5 of a white person.
The point being that the Constitution itself was a compromise and probably none of them (including Madison) agreed with the entire thing, so cherry-picking like that is a bit dishonest.
You wouldn't know that to listen to the people who howled about how terrible XP was & 2K was the best ever & they were going to stick with 2K forever &c&c.
Of course I was. We got rid of our Win2K and NT4 machines in time, except for one or two that run scientific instruments; these are off the Internet. Having a site license for Windows upgrades is pretty damn nifty.
You want obsolete? I inherited an area with two computers that were used solely to automatically SSH into an intranet administrative server and enter data. Guess what operating system they were running in 2005.
It was MS-DOS, and they weren't replaced until summer 2006. Given the sheer obsolescence and limitations of the operating system, I would actually be fine with them being in service for that one limited purpose today. DOS was so simple that it was easy to delete any non-needed executable, so you could be pretty sure there wasn't anything in there besides IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS, COMMAND.COM, the TCP/IP stack & 3Com driver, and the SSH2 program itself.
It will do those things for another year and a half, until April 2014 when Microsoft has decided it doesn't want to support it any longer. By that point you'd best have upgraded or made it so the XP machines can't see the Internet & have hot glue in their USB ports so they can't get viruses that way either.
Keep up with the times or get left behind, gramps.
Do you expect me to believe that you've not paid attention to all the anger caused by careless idiots with campfires and cigarette butts? You have an obvious case of confirmation bias, Mr. Gun Nut.
I'm a gun owner and have gone target shooting, but as others have mentioned there's no excuse for going target-shooting during red flag warnings.

Are you ignorant enough of history to think that Obama entered office in January 2007?

The "miserable failure" here is you.
Aye? So it's the lower classes who deceive themselves instead of the uppers doing it. What difference?
Restated: if Lucas interferes, it'll piss of the great unwashed mass of fanboys.
Looks like we're going to have to treat timothy like we treated kdawson until he shapes up.
It also conveniently ignores that temperatures and emissions have risen sharply since the Industrial Revolution.
Whoosh!
Undoing moderation.

He's a states-rightser who's masquerading as a libertarian, and he gets away with it because the things he says are anti-federal government.

IGTT 0/10, little boy. Try harder and maybe you'll learn to troll properly.
Sorry, no. Those folks didn't get elected until '94, and weren't in power until early '95.
Redirect all their queries to a page with Goatse and an admonishment to clean their computers.
