DownloadDo you manage hundreds or thousands of PCs?
Then Sericulus will help you manage your computing estate.
Sericulus is about checking one or two small things across many computers.
Ever needed to do that?
You know the scenario, you sit down at your PC and plough through a dozen machines manually checking some config file on each of them one at a time, then extrapolate your results across your estate. Well now you can check everything in your estate quickly and automatically!
Here are some use cases:
Across some or all of your estate you might need to...
* See the config file on a misbehaving application.
* Check that forwards and backwards DNS resolution is as expected.
* Find Free (no one logged in) machines to test something on.
* See how machines are being left on at night, after hours.
* See how many people leave themselves logged in.
* See how many people are logging on with local accounts.
* Audit BIOS Serials, IP or MAC addresses.
